Just had the misfortune of backing my AU XR8 into a solid steel pole at a undercover car park. There was no warning from my Ebay reversing sensor kit which I know does work at it goes off every time at the dip when I reversing out of my driveway.
My first thought was that as I was turning while reversing and the far side sensor may not pick up presence of the pole as it was to the side of the car. When I got home I checked the 4 sensors heads individually and found 3 okay but the far left one was not working at all. Very disappointed that the kit I have fitted to prevent this let me down when really needed it. I checked our other family cars and and all sensors work fine. Current kit will be ditched and I have already ordered a name brand one. Will still check it regularly though. Just a suggestion for people to check that all their sensor are working to avoid the same problem. Pic of damage and poles are attached. Last edited by Magee; 20-03-2018 at 12:59 PM. |

Do all your reversing sensors actually work.
