The functi
on of the parking aid is to prov
ide an audible warning to the driver of the distance to obstacles near the rear
bumper of the vehicle when parking or travelling at a slow sp eed. The system provides an assistance to the driver when
parking in order to help avoid collision with obstacles.
The sensor range at the rear of the vehicl e should be 1.8 meters. This should extend the full width of the rear bumper and
reduce to 50 cm at the vehicle co rners. The vertical range is adequate to protec t the highest and lowest points of the rear of
the vehicle. The system will detect curbs with heights of at least 18 cm. Obstacles, such as curbs, that are low enough to
pass under the vehicle until they make contact with the tires will not be detected.
The system activates a specific speaker with a tone signifying the distance to the obstacle. The tone consists of a beep and
defined space ratio which varies depending on the calculated distance. When the distance to the obstacle is less than 20 cm
the speaker tone is continuous.
The parking aid is continuously in operation, unless towing wh en the system automatically switches off. If the reverse aid
develops a fault the tone will sound continuously for three seconds when the igni tion is switched on or the reverse gear is
selected.
The parking aid system comprises of:
a
module mounted in the batte
ry junction box (BJB).
fou
r rear bumper mounted sensors which have a 90° angled electrical connector.
an audible speaker, moun

ted on
the rear parcel shelf.

Direction indicator and side marker lamps
Each front direction indicator and side marker lamp is retained in the bumper cover by a lug at one end and a spring clip at
the other end. The side marker lamps are not electrically connected for certain markets.
The side repeater lamps are secured by sp ring clips on the lower edge of the lamp unit. In certain markets Jaguar leaper
badges are substituted for side repeater lamps.
Fog lamps
The fog lamps are located in recesses in the front bump er and secured by three screws. The la mps which are not
interchangeable left to right, are accessed from the rear of the bumper.
Operation
All lamps are controlled by the BPM which provides an appropriate output in response to an input received when a selected
switch is operated.
All lamps receive an input direct from th e BPM with the exception of the main be am, dip beam and front fog lamps which
receive an input from the BPM vi a the respective relays and fuses; refer to section 418-01.
Fault analysis must be undertaken using the PDU. Refer to Diagnosis and Testing.

from the BPM via relay 3 and fuse F19. The rela y and fuses are located in the trunk fuse-box.
The tail lamps receive an input direct from the BPM.
The stop, reversing and rear fog lamps are controlled by the security and locking module (SLM) which receives inputs via
the SCP network from the BPM.
The HMSL is not controlled by the SLM; it receives input from the brake switch via relay 5 and fuse F8 in the trunk fuse-box.

The BPM and SLM monitor the stop lamps (n ot HMSL) and tail lamps for failure.
Fault analysis must be undertaken using the PDU, refer to Diagnosis and Testing.
Consult the relevant Electrical Guid e for details of circuit operation.
