<p><strong>Pro Tip</strong>
The most common mistake when re-fitting sensors is that the sensor is not clipped into the 3D printed bracket correctly. When wrong, the clear plasitic &quot;boot&quot; (around the sensor) is pinched, which causes the sensor to alarm. <strong>Please take care to ensure the sensors clip in correctly.</strong> It will save you a lot of muck around later.</p>

Step 6 of 19

Pop Sensors out of Bumper Spread the 2 x plastic tabs apart, and push the sensor from the back side. There is NO NEED to unplug the sensor from the harness.

Step 10 of 19

Cut the clips holding the harness, so it is lengthened. We do this because we need it to reach back further

11
Step 11 of 19

Plug in the sensor harness. located on the passenger side.

12
Step 12 of 19

Remove extra zip ties-Clips from the harness. This tidies it up, and makes it easier to fit.

13
Step 13 of 19

Remove LED Tail lights. Qty 4, 10mm socket. ** will allow better access to plug-in the sensors**

14
Step 14 of 19

You will have been supplied with a sensor extension harness. It is part number WH024.

15
Step 15 of 19

If the vehicle is a Wildtrak or "high end" model. It will have the extra sensors as shown here. Push in to the 3D printed holder. The clear plastic boot should sit

16
Step 16 of 19
<p><strong>You do not want it to look like this!</strong>  notice that on the left-hand side the clear plastic boot looks pinched. It is necessary to wiggle the sensor until the boot becomes even all the way around the sensor.</p>

Step 17 of 19

Pop in the other sensors.

Step 18 of 19

Refit the LED lights. 4 x M6 bolts. Use a 10mm socket to tighten.

Step 19 of 19

Check it is working correctly When vehicle is put in reverse, the sensors should react as something comes close to them. Have a second person walk slowly around the back of the vehicle to make sure all are working. If a sensor is BEEPING even when nothing is close to it, wiggle the sensor. Usually that fixes it.
