C4 Front Bumper - Collision Sensor

Hey All - Did a quick search and nothing came up. Had a C4 hybrid front bumper installed today and now i'm getting a sensor error "pre collision sensor not working" or something to that tune. Anybody have experience dealing with this? I had a shop do the install, so I can bother them to fix it.. just wanted to know if it was normal/to be expected.

TIA!

 

Did the new bumper come with spots to install the sensors so they’d work properly?

Heres the bumper

 

I have the same bumper with no sensor issues. Check the plug behind the grill, maybe they forgot to reconnect it.
GL!

 

Re-calibrate??

 

Have the same bumper. No issues. Did install myself.

 

Another C4 hybrid here with no issues. Did a home install.

Do you happen to have a mid-rise hoop? I think that one can interfere with TSS. I have the high hoop and it's fine

 

Mid loop, its heading in tomorrow for an oil change so i will get it checked out then, i just wanted to know if it was a big deal or not.

 

From the web page you linked above:


I don't know what kind of solution you're hoping for but the warning was right there on the website.

Yeah that sucks dude. Sorry to see this

 

Im not too heartbroken about it, just need to not be distracted anymore! I never used lane departure, i found it super annoying.

 

The lane departure and backup sensors should all be unaffected. I think it's just the forward pre-collision system that's being blocked

 

Check your owners manual for everything that grill sensor does.
Sell or cut off bullbar.
See if C4 can make you a hirise bullbar and send it to you.
just some ideas. Good luck.

 

Not sure what grill you have.. The pro grill has the sensor at the bottom. I have a 2021 OR with the sensor in the center behind the Toyota emblem. You may want to try the opposite grill as you have. Just a thought

 

I have the TRD Pro one, i stumbled on a thread of someone who relocated the sensor so i am going to probably follow suit, however i didnt know that this would mess with my cruise control. I would consider the switch to your grille.. i just dont love it

 

Update - saw on a different thread that someone had actually done a successful relocation of the sensor and kept the mid height bar.. Going to be trying that before all hope is lost!

 

Can you link the thread? I have one on the way and may do this as well! I ordered knowing the mid bill bar wasn’t compatible with TSS, but I love the mid bull bar look.
