Just installed Option 4WD steel bumper, and now ranger constantly thinks that there is someone in front of me...

I could probably move it a bit to the center where the grill is, but then you can always see the sensor, and that thing is huge and ugly..

Usuall sensitivity settings trough the dash didnt help...

Is there some sort of other calibration possible?

Thanks in advance!

I believe the sensitivity/intensity settings are for the steering wheel vibration only.

I can't see how the radar will work unless it has clear line of sight. Mine was obstructed by the number plate surround only a tiny bit and that was enough to make it useless.

Use Forscan to do a CCM calibration and see if this resolves the issue.
