Condition
Some customers may comment that the rear cross tra c and/or side blind zone
system(s) may not detect certain vehicles or there is an unavailable message.
The cause of this concern could be that one or both Left/Right Side Obstacle
Detection Control Module were improperly installed into the rear bumper fascia
bracket, due to poor workmanship. The side obstacle detection modules have an
internal antenna to emit a signal (radar wave) and the modules must be installed
properly for the system to work correctly. There have been cases, where these
modules have been installed upside down, backwards, ipped over, swapped left to
right, etc. Typically, these installation issues happen after there has been some type
of previous repair work done to the vehicle.
Cause
In the example shown below, the Side Object Detection Modules were ipped over
(1). The modules internal antenna, that emits the radar wave, was pointed inward
towards the passenger's compartment. Despite the radar being mounted
incorrectly, and pointing in the opposite direction, the system still had some partial
functionality, but clearly not working to the systems full standards.
Call out 1 - Improperly installed
Call out 2 - Properly installed (labeling on the module pointing towards the front of
the vehicle)
Correction:
When diagnosing a performance related issue, with the Rear Cross Tra c and / or Side Blind Zone systems, rst
verify the proper installation of the Left and Right Side Obstacle Detection Control Modules. If you are unsure if
they are installed correctly, then compare the installation to a known good vehicle and also review SI repair
instructions.
Warranty Information
Improperly installed modules typically occur after some type of previous repair such as module replacement,
body shop repairs, etc. and are not covered under warranty.
