3.7 TROUBLESHOOTING THE DETECTION ZONE

If the zone is not as expected, inspect the mounting location for any obstructions, vehicle trim

damage, loose brackets, etc. and repair or relocate the sensor as needed.

See Section 1.2 in cases where the sensor needs to be relocated.

See Section 1.13 for information about the required clearance zone around the sensor.

See the Sections that follow for cases where no detection or continuous detection is experienced.

Park the vehicle in an area with no metallic objects within 15 feet of the sensor being inspected.

Turn the ignition ON and wait for the self-check (See Table 1) to complete.

Activate the turn signal towards the side being examined. Using a sizeable metallic object [at least

one (1) foot by one (1) foot], test the effective Detection Zone for the Bendix

™

BlindSpotter

. Note

that the alert tone will sound once for each operation of the turn signal. The technician may nd it

helpful to have an assistant be ready to cancel and re-apply the turn signal as the metallic object

is moved into the detection zone from the side, the front and back.

The red LED should remain illuminated while the object is within the detection zone. The zone should

be approximately ten (10) feet from the vehicle directly in line with the sensor, and ve-and-a-half

(5.5) feet towards the front (and back) of the vehicle. See Figure 9.
