Def think that's the error issue... you also may have to add two pinned wires from the wiring block under your drivers seat to the module in the kick... you can check if you need them by looking at the grey plug at the module and see if all cavities are full...

Checked the gray connector and it has all the pins.

Nice-- you will only need the harness, 2 sensors and the 2 rear valance pieces and you should be good to go...

I placed an order for all of it. Hopefully it comes before the weekend. But, we'll see.

Can You share part numbers with us, can't find rear valance pieces. My last order already 10 days on hold, still not shipped :(.

You will want "5" in the picture. It depends on your bumper, but if yours is like mine and has the exhaust cut outs, you can use the part numbers below:

1 of 68360453AD, WIRING. REAR FASCIA. [Rear Bumper Module], [Parallel and Perp Park Assist w/Stop], [Remote Proximity Keyless Entry].
2 of 68271824AA, RING. Decoupler. Sensor.
2 of 6MK25TZZAA, SENSOR. Park Assist. Inboard.
1 of 68404409AA, VALANCE. Rear. Left. Outer.
1 of 68404408AA, VALANCE. Rear. Right. Outer.

Have you called them? I had to call them on two orders. As soon as I called them, they magically shipped.

@vin56-- just a heads up.. the sensors may come primed and ready to paint, just use some black TRIM paint--light coats for a perfect match, also the rubber Decoupler Rings come with the sensors; at least for the ones I recently ordered...

The decoplers were less than $2.00 so I'm sure they didn't have the sensors. Yeah, I noticed the sensors were gray. So these can be painted? That's cool. I'll do that to match them match my black.

... I should have said the sensors have the rubber rings from the factory... I have used this product on a half dozen Rams that I have added the front and rear sensors on.. again perfect match and no ill effects on their operation...

Installed the two new sensors for the rear and replaced the two in front. When I push the active park button, it just sits there saying sensing. Doesn't matter if it is in parallel mode or perpendicular mode. And yes, I was next to cars using it.

Vin56--- just another thought... under Alfa, what is the 'Park Assist Tuning Set' value... that may need a change.. off hand it might need to be ' 10 Channel/BUX Rear Only/Summit' -- but don't hold me to it -- I think you're close...
edit-- just did some more digging... before you change above, check
VehConfig 1-PTS Configuration and it's value... try setting it to semi automatic

Changing the park assist tuning disables the sensors. The only settings that work are the two Base options. I tried both with no change. I also set the other to semi-auto.

It was the semi-auto park. I set it before, but it wasn't set, must have went back. But I tested both parallel and perpendicular and it works!

@MayhemMOORE...just wondering if you have had any ACC success with that new HCU or if you have had the chance to install it yet...

I haven’t had a chance to mess with replacing the HCU yet. It’s on my to-do list, it just keeps getting bumped by random stuff that comes up.
