In this video I go through, step by step, how to fit rear parking sensors to a Ford Fiesta 2014.
The sensor kit I am using is X-Vision.
The process is the same for most Fiestas but slightly different for other models.

Many thank's ive been thinking of doing this job on my v70 for the last 3 years, since i sold my range rover i got used to the lazy convenience of parking sensors,you make it look easy enough for a sunday morning job,thank you again all the best to you

@Martin-wz2ie 3 года назад

Found out that if you take off bumper it already has the markings so you just need to make pilot holes then hole saw from out side of the bumper to stop any paint chipping

Nice video, Ewan.

On the black trim, better to drill at 80mm instead of 30mm. That will fit like the oem sensors, and as written in one comment, it can be seen on the back of the absorber. On my 2009 EU Fiesta, the reverse wire is the full blue, took me some tries to find it so here is a tip for the viewers. Thanks for this nice and helpful video 👍🏻 though.

Great job.

Quick tip: instead of stripping the wire and soldering, simply use a quick splice wire connector or a T-tap wire connector. Piece of cake - takes a few seconds, looks neat, easy to disconnect, cheap - no wonder some parking sensor kits contain one of these.

Honestly i prefer to make small in between looms with terminals so if I ever have to swap it out it's quick conmect.

Hi. Good video, thanks. What is the name of the ridge cutter bit you're using to recess the sensors?

@lemanlifestyle 3 года назад

I just bought an original set from a Fiesta ST in my color from eBay. Drilled 29 mm and plugged the sensors in the socket that’s already behind all the Fiesta bumpers haha. Fixed it in forscan and tadaa. Original PDC on the screen and through the speakers

Does it work if you put an unofficial Android Radio?

@ColinWatters 2 года назад

Can you tell us was it easy to find the socket?

@todotvstreaming Год назад

Is this an aftermarket kit? Did it affect any of your assistance sensors like blind spot or cross traffic warning?

@adambenson732 Год назад

Does that speaker connect to your car speakers? If not do u know how you would?

Hi, I'd love to know what that recess drill bit is called please. I've tried looking up the above but no joy! Thanks

Hey can you do this with a 2022+ Ford Maverick? I never knew it didn't come with the truck except for the Lariat models -__- wasted money on the XTL Luxury package thinking it would come with it.

@sneakzi1426 2 года назад

Hey Ewan, great video! Is there a way to add sensors and also have it so you get a visual display on the small screen?

@Arg0n01 День назад

There are kits with the screen. If you have an aftermarket infotainment and head unit you can wire those in the infotainment system.

hey my man, thanks for the vid! how did you find out which was the reverse cable? I've got a mondeo 2011 and assume might be the same but want to check it 100% before ripping out.

@ewanwillis8514 3 года назад

Wiring diagram, or you can use a multimeter, test for 12v on each wire when reverse gear is selected. Hope that helps👍

merci bro pour cette video sorry for my english i m french i buy a 8 sensors rear and front i need to connect two cables , one to the rear light (plain blue the same of yours i think) but i need connect another cable to the brake light , do you know the color of the cable ? thanks i have fiesta 2015

@ewanwillis8514 3 года назад

Why do you need to connect one wire to the brake light? That’s unusual in my experience

You say you have fitted loads working at ford, however, My 2018 car has canbus wiring, could you advise me whether you can connect the power from the reversing light wiring as you have shown with no issues

@ewanwillis8514 3 года назад

It will be the exact same process, it will still have a reverse light wire to the bulb👍 hope that helps

@ansamedia6143 Год назад

Since you're only tapping into the reverse power wire, realistically these can be installed on any car right?

@Arg0n01 День назад

Correct. It will draw power from the reverse light. Same with the reverse camera with led lights. If you wire it in and flip to reverse the leds light up and the dash cam goes into the reverse mode.

@jakebellamy-wood9562 3 года назад

Did you have to activate anything? Or was it already pre activated? Thanks

@ewanwillis8514 3 года назад

Nope no activation required

@jjmmjj9999 2 года назад

Activate what? It's powered by the reverse light signal.. Same as connecting to a 12v battery in your bedroom, it'll still function. Talking of, I've just had an idea. Battery charger will be permanent 12v... Install sensors into a driveway tree, push wall etc Power by the battery charger When you reverse up (or drive forward) the 'wall' or 'tree' will beep
