Service The ParkSense
ா
Rear Park Assist System
When the ParkSense ௡ Rear Park Assist system is mal-
functioning, the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) will actuate a single chime, once per ignition
cycle, and it will display the “CLEAN PARK ASSIST”,
“SERVICE PARK ASSIST”, or “SERVICE PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM” message. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)” in “Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information. When the shift lever is
moved to REVERSE and the system has detected a fault
condition, the EVIC will display the “CLEAN PARK
ASSIST ”, “SERVICE PARK ASSIST”, or the “SERVICE
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” message for as long as the
vehicle is in REVERSE. Under this condition, ParkSense
௡
will not operate.
If “CLEAN PARK ASSIST” appears in the EVIC make
sure the rear fascia/bumper is clean and clear of snow,
ice, mud, dirt or other obstruction and then cycle the
ignition. If the message appears again, see an authorized
dealer.
If “SERVICE PARK ASSIST” or “SERVICE PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM” appears in the EVIC, see an authorized dealer.
