HOW TO: Adding FRONT and REAR Parking Sensors

The Bezels are for the front lower grill and two outer fog light surrounds. Each piece has 2 sensors for a total of 6. Fitment is keyed on each to allow for the correct orientation of each sensor plug. I bought all OEM parts online from McKinney CJDR in Texas. Their online site had detailed diagrams and list/show specifically where each part is to go. I wrote the locations down if you need them for each oem bezel listed by @FM45

Great, thanks. Yes, I'd like to see your list. From the HUSHAN site, I think I received two flavors of the same two bezels?

Five years ago, I started this thread with the hope of adding parking sensors to my 2020 Laramie. This past weekend, I successfully installed the front and rear sensors following the detailed instructions from @FM45. They are spot on and include everything you need for an easy install. I would add and/or change a few things to make things easier:

First off, buy a 1oz tube of Dielectric grease. Grease all connections that are NOT video connections.
1.) I used a different front harness because I have LED fogs.
2.) Remove the rear tailgate to access the middle harness connector sandwiched between plastic.
3.) Order extra pieces from Mouser and buy a micro pin crimper.
4.) Make the 36" harness 48" - the extra length was perfect, make the other two harnesses 18-24". I made mine 24", you can always shorten them.
5.) When installing the C2 pins into the connector under the driver's seat, pins 45, 46 get inserted 180 degrees different than pins 10-13. Also, after you remove the silicone plugs for these pins, cut off the smooth end, then drill a 1/16 hole through the middle to slide it onto your wire to seal the connection after insertion.
6.) Plug A is difficult to remove - slide a 1/4"x1/16" thick piece of metal with a 30 degree bend at one end, up into the back of the connector from the bottom and try to push the tab toward the engine. Then slide the connector DOWN.
7.) Pick any spot on the Can block behind the headlight switch.
8.) Instead of pinning C1 ground to plug B pin 10, crimp a 1/4" round terminal to the end and connect to the vehicle ground post under the park module in the left kick panel. Either method works fine though.
9.) You can pin C1 fused ignition power supply to plug B pin 3 if the female side has a pink wire with green stripe. (Mine did and it was the fused ignition)
10.) You do not need to remove the driver's seat.
11.) Buy a park module with the 3 connectors and wires attached with at least 2" of wire. I crimped my wires to them and put shrink tube over the connection. I also lucked out and found the correct module with connectors when I bought it.


When you are finished, this mod will look like it was factory installed.
Compared to kits being sold by infotainment, THIS is the way to go and is comparable in price, plus it looks and feels factory instead of running wires through firewalls or tapping into the accessory outlet.
Five years in the making, and thanks to the work by @FM45, I now have factory front and rear parking sensors.

Using your write-up to get my parts list for this mod on my 2021 1500 Big Horn Ecodiesel. Does anyone know how to narrow down the correct module and front and rear wiring harness? Looking on BAM I am finding multiple parts with varying prices but don't know the difference for each or which is correct one to order. Below is the list for the 2021 1500 Ram under the Park Assist section on BAM. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Parking Assist Module: $63.00 - 69.22
Has anybody done this yet on a 21 and newer truck? I found there is a different Park Assist Module for 21-24 Rams than the one that was used on a 2019 ram in the write-up. Physically they look the same. Just hope the pin locations are the same.

For reference the part # for 21 and up Park Assist Module is 68464879AG
I bough a used 68271822AI per FM45's writeup. I have completed install of the rear only on my 22. I flashed all the settings per FM45; except I choose Rear for

I bought a used 68271822AI module; per FM45's writeup (didn't realize until now it is specific to 2019). I have completed installation of only the rear so far. I chose Rear for VehConfig1-PTS Config: I now get the icon in my cluster but it says SERVICE under the icon. Wondering if it's the wrong module, or a bad sensor. I bought the cheap Amazon sensors. No error messages when I scan. How do you check the sensors--just trial and error? I'd like to verify the sensors before I buy another module. I see you say 68464879AG; but per the catalog 80 also fits MY22. Do you know the difference?

Thanks,
Brent

Did you get an answer on the module PN?
