sensors

Evening chappies. Another problem for you to solve if possible please. Well I've just fitted a rear parking sensor set up and i'm amazed how it works as this is the first time iv had a setup on any of my 30 or so cars. It works perfectly BUT as soon as you put it in reverse the bulb failure...

I need to fit a reversing sensor kit to my w202 C280 saloon and was wondering how difficult it would be ? and, can any one point me in the right direction of a supplier please that they have used. Cheers, Tony.

Hi all Does anyone know the best place to get tyre pressure sensors and valves for my CL. Does anyone know what the correct sensors are? Thanks Thanks

Hi. Last week I decided to get the Steelmate front sensors fitted on my C180 coupe (2006) I had the rear ones already and they are perfect! So the sensors were fitted by a reputable company who also fitted me an led display inside the car, however the sensors seem to be picking up a lot of...

Just fitted Maplin parking sensors to my 2005 w203 for the grand total of £19.99. Colour coded the sensors first with primer, 2 coats colour and 1 coat clear lacquer (worried in case they wouldn't work because of paint and metallic paint to - there's lots of conflicting advice on the web about...

Hi all I'm planning on fitting rear parking sensors once I have the van (hopefully Wednesday) and needed to know what I needed apart from the kit itself Can I just connect the power to the reverse light?

Hi, I am after 2 parking sensors for my Silver W163 ML. Silver colour would be best but dont mind having to paint them. Thanks

# outer plastic washers seen around parking sensors on c43 front/rear bumpers are they sold separately apart from sensors or do they come complete in the box? # does all front ends on sensors come colorcoded or are they unpainted? # when painting front or rear bumper is it best to remove the...

So they just seem to have packed in, i press the switch on the dash and the two red lights light up on the sensors on the front dash (but not at the back) for about 5 secs then makes a beep and they turn off again? Any advice guys?

The R/H front parking sensor(s) on my '98 W210 are not functioning - no dash display, no audible warning even when there is something in detection range. The other three corners are fine. Could anybody hazard a guess as to where to start looking? E55BOF

My parking sensors stopped working with a continuous beep, then started working again. Then they stopped working again, so I took the car to a merc specialist and they tell me 2 at the front and 1 at the back is not working. Could it be possible there is corrosion on the connections . I have...

As the title it looks like one of my sensors has packed up. Two red LEDS on the front keep lighting from time to time and the same when I select reverse then the system switches itself off when moved to Park. The question is can I buy one colour coded from MB, are they easy to fit, is there a...

Hi I was wondering if there is any difference in the type of sensor used pre cat and post cat. (Oxygen sensors) I'm shopping around for them on ebay and find that the NGK front (pre cat) is about 59 but the rears are around 99. Can anyone tell me the difference in the 2 parts ? Thanks

does anyone know why the sensors are different lengths on each side? passenger side sensor is tripped very quickly and can sometimes bring on the brake warning light. the drivers side sensor is what I would call normal and trips when pad is worn. it's the passenger one I don't understand? thanks

I'm going to get the rear and front bumpers painted How hard would it be to fit parking sensors too the bumpers Their are some nice Pre painted kits on eBay for sale Has any one done this before or looked into doing it Any help welcome Thx

Hi, just had a thought, I haven't heard any parking sensors beeping in the SL? It is a 2002 SL500, are they standard? If it has them, why aren't they beeping? Can they be turned on and off? If so how do I turn them back on? Any help would be very much appreciated. Cheers Mark

Has anyone else had problems with Rain sensors "not working to full capacity" ? The last few times it has rained the automatic setting has not worked very efficiently anyone any idea's?? :doh:

Gentlemen I have just had a STAR computer check on my 2002 CL500 which showed that 6 out of the 8 Parktronic Sensors where faulty. When driving the car I would say that the sensors were over sensitive rather than dead, as the system is always giving false warnings. Does this make sense, and is...

Wife's B has parktronic. This last week the rear sensors seem to have packed up altogether. The lights come on on the roof mounted display, but there is no indication of how close you are to the object you are reversing towards. Anyone got any pointers on troubleshooting? Thanks, Dan.

Hi All!, I have been using the forum for ages but finally decided to sign up and start posting myself! I have a couple of issues I was hoping some of you might be able to help with, Firstly I just bought a 2001 C320, The problem is the speedo needle doesnt work, The speed comes up digitally...
