Backup Sensors

The sensors are ready for operation when the shift lever is moved to the reverse position with the backup sensor switch turned ON.

Operation of the sensors is dependent upon the ultrasonic waves they emit. They calculate the distance between the sensor and a rear obstacle by measuring the time until the ultrasonic waves reach the sensor after being reflected by the obstacle.
