Sensors, Cameras and Driver Assistance: What You Give Up Going Aftermarket

Sensors, Cameras and Driver Assistance: What You Give Up Going Aftermarket - GM Parts Club

We sell genuine GM parts, so take this for what it is worth, but the sensors, cameras and driver assistance conversation deserves a straight answer rather than a sales pitch.

What Is Actually Different

  • These are calibrated devices, and the calibration lives in the module that expects a specific sensor.
  • Camera and radar aim is a service procedure, not a bolt-on.
  • TPMS sensors have to match the protocol and frequency the receiver expects.

The Parts in Question

  • Park assist sensors
  • Backup cameras
  • Blind zone modules
  • Front camera modules
  • Radar sensors
  • TPMS sensors

The Symptoms People Chase

Before you buy anything, confirm the problem. The usual signs are a park assist system that disables itself in cold weather and comes back warm, a backup camera image that flickers, goes blue, or shows lines, a lane keep or forward collision system that reports as unavailable after a windshield replacement.

Interval and Expectations

TPMS sensor batteries typically last seven to ten years and are commonly replaced as a set during a tire change.

Ordering

Painted park assist sensors are ordered in primer and painted to your code. Confirm your paint code before ordering. Have the VIN. It resolves nearly every fitment question in one step.

We have been selling GM parts online since 2009 and out of the Dallas store since 1956. Start with our Chevrolet OEM parts catalog, or search for park assist sensors.
