  Q: How to service and repair the Parking Assist Distance Sensor on Chevrolet Venture?

  A: The replacement process for rear object sensors starts with removing the rear bumper fascia. The rear object sensor becomes accessible when the housing locking tabs are lifted and removed from its position. Use compression on the spring to detach it from the housing and then free the tabs from the housing before the removal. The second step requires removal of the rear object sensor bezel attached to the rear fascia. At the time of installing the new rear object sensor you should avoid painting any existing components that have been painted before. Apply new sensor paint without its coating exceeding 6 mm while using a non-ferrous metal suitable paint thickness gauge. Line up the keyhole opening on the bezel with its mating key and lower the rear object sensor bezel until it fits the fascia surface. Pull the housing through the cutouts of the bezel from the back fascia side while positioning spring keys both at the top and bottom of the housing. The decoupling ring should be inserted first into the sensor before installing the spring onto the housing. Propagate the sensor into its housing making sure its connector faces the passenger side of the fascia then push the sensor tabs through the housing cutouts. To finish the process connect the electrical connector then put back the rear bumper fascia.
