Code B0960:22 Description

The parking assist sensors are 3-wire ultrasonic sensors that are used to determine the distance between the vehicle and an object. The Parking Assist Control Module supplies 12 V to the parking assist sensors via the 12 V reference circuit and provides ground via the low reference circuit. The Parking Assist Control Module triggers the sensors in a sequential loop. After each sensor transmits, the Parking Assist Control Module uses the sensor echo received through the signal circuit to calculate the distance and position of an object. The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set when the Parking Assist Control Module determines no change in the position of an object while the vehicle is in motion.
