Few Questions from a Soon to be ALP Owner

[RedRocket]

So after swapping "Ports" the same Sensor (Driver side) is still silent...correct ?
Now,you need to check the DIN connector for the Driver Sensor to see if there is a problem w/ it.Unplug the Male & Female connector from each other & carefully look at the pins on the "Male" connector (the Female conn. is on the Sensor wire side).

Are the Pins ALL straight & ok ???
Be careful plugging them back together...there's a small "detent" to align them BEFORE pushing them together !!!
This is important so you don't bend/damage the Pins.

Correct after swapping the same one was still silent.

I did unplug and replug connector but I did not really look to see what the actual pins in there looked like.

I also noticed that even the driver side sensor seems weak. I have to get right up to it before it will beep. I had the sensitivity set to high too.

Check again & LOOK !

What distance in feet do you have it set at ?

Had it on 8 the highest.

Going out now to look. I just get on couch a while until and the. Go out I am back and forth. Lol. This virus is rough. I hate to keep complaining but this could not have came at a worse time when I am trying to get alp going and easter coming up.

pic not too clear but it looked good ...

Way out of focus but if pins look good & are straight at least it's not a bent individual pin.
What we don't know is:
1.Sensor itself or internal wire inside the cable connecting to the Female DIN connector.
2.The Male DIN connector inside & individual wires going back to the Control Box (CPU).

There is 1 more test that can determine which it is.If you're sick we can do it when you feel better or now...LMK.

Yes let me know what it is. I am moving slow but I can get to it sometime. Thanks for helping.

If your wire length permits I want you to swap the 2 CPU cables AT THE DIN connectors.In other words, -
1. Take the Driver side MALE DIN & plug it into the Pass. Sensor.
2. Take the Pass. side MALE DIN & plug it into the Driver Sensor.

Tell me which side in not working now.
