2 Answers
Arrizo 5 radar sensor replacement steps are as follows: 1. Remove the rear bumper (screws are installed at the rear of the chassis). 2. Locate the reversing radar sensor, and push it outward from the inside of the bumper to remove it. 3. Replace with a new radar sensor and reassemble everything. Below is a partial introduction to the radar sensor: 1. Reversing radar: Also known as "reverse anti-collision radar" or "parking assist device". 2. The reversing radar is a safety assist device when parking or reversing: It can inform the driver of the surrounding obstacles through sound or more intuitive display, relieving the driver's troubles caused by looking around when parking, reversing, or starting the vehicle.
I just replaced the radar sensor on my Arrizo 5 last month. As a car owner who loves DIY, it was quite straightforward. First, prepare the tools—small screwdrivers and a new sensor of the same model—and remember to disconnect the battery to prevent short circuits. The sensor is usually located under the rear bumper; just unscrew it to access the connector. Carefully unplug the old sensor’s wiring, avoiding excessive force to prevent cable damage. After installing the new one, secure the screws and reconnect the power to test—the parking sensor should alert normally when reversing. Why did the sensor fail? Most likely due to aging or impact damage, so check alignment during replacement to avoid false alarms. Opt for high-quality sensors—don’t cheap out. The whole process takes about half an hour, saving you a trip to the repair shop.
