2007 Toyota Tundra Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the Parking Assist Distance Sensor, specifically the Ultrasonic Sensors for the rear side on 2007 Toyota Tundra?

  A: The first step for servicing or repairing the rear side Ultrasonic Sensors of the Parking Assist Distance Sensor starts with negative battery terminal cable removal followed by a minimum 90-second wait after ignition switch shutdown for navigation system memory acquisition. Both left and right license plate light assemblies must be removed first then the rear bumper pad sub-assembly along with the rear bumper plates from both sides. Detach the rear bumper cover and rear bumper bar next in the sequence. The No.1 Ultrasonic Sensor can be removed by pushing down on the lever to disconnect one claw while detaching the other claw with knowledge that the claws operate with different mechanisms. The two claws on the No.1 Ultrasonic Sensor retainer need to be detached to remove it. Install the same procedure to set up the No.2 Ultrasonic Sensor together with its corresponding retainer. The first step in installation includes placing the No.1 Ultrasonic Sensor retainer correctly while ensuring its keyhole lines up with the protrusion and then attaching the No.1 Ultrasonic Sensor through its two claw mechanisms. The same fitting sequence applies to the No.2 Ultrasonic Sensor as well as its retaining component. Reinstall the rear bumper bar together with the rear bumper cover, rear bumper plates and the rear bumper pad sub-assembly followed by securing the license plate light assemblies on both sides. The negative battery terminal needs the cable reconnection when finishing the process although some systems need initialization after making the connection.
