Get Expert Advice on Installation
As our vehicles become larger, parking in crowded places like city centres has become increasingly frustrating. While new cars are often equipped with parking sensors, this technology was not as widely available in the past. Now that this technology is more widespread, why shouldn’t drivers of older vehicles benefit from the convenience of parking assistance? In this 16-minute free webinar, you will learn about Valeo’s Beep&Park parking sensor system and how to fit it to an existing vehicle.
How Ultrasonic Parking Sensors Work
We’ll explain how ultrasonic sound works and why it is a good choice for parking sensor technology. You’ll learn how the Beep&Park system’s transducer emits ultrasonic waves and how the system’s ECU determines if an obstacle is in the way. We’ll also explain what atmospheric factors can disrupt the speed of sound.
What’s New in the Beep&Park Kit
The first aftermarket parking sensors made parking easier for older vehicles but looked unsightly due to their poorly integrated design. Discover how our new Beep&Park system cleverly fits flush into the bumpers to maintain an OE appearance. You’ll learn how our flush kit is designed for reliability and ease of installation and how it’s easy to upgrade now or in the future.
Data and Technical Details
Discover what’s included in the manual so you’re ready to install the kit as soon as you get it. You’ll learn about the different parts included in the kit, such as the ECU, the front and rear sensors, the loudspeakers, and more. We’ll delve into the features of the Beep&Park system, from normal functioning to the built-in self-diagnostic function and more. Before you start driving with the system, learn how the sensors have a different detection range depending on their location on the vehicle. You’ll also find out whether they’re compatible with tow bars or bull bars.
Fitting Requirements
The Beep&Park system requires careful fitment within specific angle and height parameters to avoid faults. You’ll learn why incorrectly positioned sensors can cause major problems and where to find proper installation instructions. We’ll introduce compatible accessories like the camera, display, and the special tool required for proper installation.
Troubleshooting and Disclaimers
We will explore common installation issues and how to verify that the system is properly installed. As the self-test automatically assesses upon activation, you’ll discover the different beeps which could indicate a problem and what fixes you should try before condemning the system. We will explain what types of vehicles the system is not compatible with and which cars may require extra parts for proper fitment. Finally, we'll discuss the potential dangers of false detection and why the system should be installed by an approved professional.
