Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools and parts.
• Ensure the vehicle is parked on a flat, stable surface and turned off.
• Disconnect the battery to ensure safety while working on the electrical components.

2. Inspect and Clean Sensors

• Locate the blind spot monitoring sensors on each rear corner of the vehicle.
• Clean the surfaces of the sensors using a soft cloth and a mild cleaner to eliminate any obstructions.
• Visually inspect the sensors for signs of damage.

3. Check Wiring and Connections

• Remove the trim panels if necessary to access the wiring harness connected to the sensors.
• Inspect all wiring for frays, breaks, or corrosion.
• Secure any loose connections and replace any damaged wires.

4. Software Update and Reset

• Connect the vehicle to a Wi-Fi network and navigate to “Software” in the vehicle settings.
• Check for available updates and install any if found.
• After updating, perform a system reset by turning the vehicle off for at least 10 minutes before restarting.

5. Reconnect Battery
