Purpose and function of the set

The presented set includes four black sensors designed for the PDC system in BMW F20, F21, F23, and F87 models. The set works with the vehicle's factory installation, enabling accurate obstacle detection in the bumper zone and transmitting signals to the control unit, which translates into easier maneuvering in tight spaces and better control over the distance from obstacles.

By maintaining the original geometry and operating characteristics, the sensors provide repeatable distance readings, which is crucial for the proper functioning of acoustic and visual signals in the PDC system. The Black color facilitates integration with dark bumpers, reducing the visibility of the components and preserving the aesthetics of the bodywork.

Construction and performance parameters

The set of four PDC sensors has been designed as an OEM BMW system component, which means it fits factory mounting brackets and is compatible with the original electrical harness. The black housing used is resistant to typical operating conditions in the bumper zone, such as moisture, temperature changes, or road debris.

Each sensor generates an ultrasonic signal that, after reflecting off an obstacle, is analyzed by the PDC system. Proper cooperation of all four elements in the set allows for the creation of a consistent detection field, which increases safety during front or rear parking, depending on the vehicle configuration.

Condition, fitment, and installation

The set comes from the BMW parts group and is offered as a used item, which allows for an economical repair of the PDC system while maintaining the original specification. Thanks to factory dimensions and connectors, installation consists of placing the sensors in the prepared bumper sockets and connecting them to the existing harness, without the need for structural modifications.

Before installation, it is recommended to verify the correct operation of each sensor in the vehicle and check whether the PDC system configuration corresponds to the number and placement of elements in the given model. A correctly selected set of sensors allows for restoring the full functionality of the parking assistance system after mechanical damage or failure of individual components.

Integration with other BMW Parking sensors
