SkintRacing Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 Evening all, newbie here. I became the proud owner of a 55 plate Grand Voyager a couple of weeks ago. Wish i'd done it sooner, unfortunately I was struck by the Land Rover bug (needed a 7 seater) which ended up costing me a small fortune on repair/maintenance. Anyway, the Voyager is so far so good, but..... It has fitted, I'm guessing factory fitted as it was a demo car, front parking sensors. They look original. I have no idea how to get them to work, I have tried everything I can think of, but there are no lights or buzzers I can see to indicate something in front of the car. I have gone through the manual and cannot find any reference to front sensors. Has anybody seen these before? Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.

bignev Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 Hiya fella and welcome! I've never come across a GV with front sensors myself. An acquaintance of mine fits aftermarket sensors, but they have a switch for the front ones somewhere. Because they can't be connected into the car ecu to detect speed to activate, or deactivate if they were activated by the reverse lights.

SkintRacing Posted September 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 Hi bignev and thanks! I've still not managed to find out anything about GV front sensors, so i'm starting to assume they are aftermarket. I will get underneath at the weekend (weather permitting) and trace the wires back. I'll let you know how I get on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebh8 Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Hi, same as bignev, never heard of front parking sensors on a grand voyager.However, I fitted some front view cameras and to turn them on I fitted a switch, usually on the gearbox lever. Could be that somewhere is a switch so the driver doesn't get annoyed by them beeping every time the car gets behind another car in traffic?! Hope it helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
