Finally got round to changing the switch bar in the centre console for one that has a parking sensor switch. Was a bit fiddly but now on and plugged in. I have had the switches for nearly a year and not got around to fitting but we moved to a house with a narrow drive and they drove me mad every time I reversed out!

I can switch off the parking sensors on my 63 plate, so can park in silence! Or are we talking different sensors |

If you have front and rear sensors then LR kindly installed an on/off button in the switch bar over the heater controls.

Do you have the LR part number of the switch panel with the sensor switch (I have a Facelift Dash MY2013 GS). If it's 'Plug and Play' I'll get one. Gone:

Hi, I found the switch bar on ebay, with help of this forum. I have the original description, that I've copied below, the last numbers might be the part number?

Sounds like what I need, my towing electrics are bodged in and drives me nuts when reversing with a trailer or bike rack on! |

Spot on thanks. Didn't know you could switch the rear sensors off on the GS, only upper spec models with both front and rear. Many thanks. Gone:

This is my console unit and the switches are those above the heating controls below and to the side of the CD slot. This is the original with the large ECO button on the right, the new bar has a smaller eco button and the sensor switch on the far right.

I have a feeling this should work with mine, looks like the same bar just with the extra button...

I looks like the same bar with the parking sensor button as you say. Worth a try and get rid of the screaming sensors! 2013 GS Baltic Blue - part exchanged now for Volvo V40 |
