About Parking Sensor Kits

The Peugeot parking sensor kit provides you with all the necessary components to fit parking sensors on your vehicle and is designed specifically for the make and model of your vehicle. The Peugeot parking sensor kit is a handy device that can go a long way to preserving the bodywork of your vehicle by helping you to avoid collisions while parking.

A parking sensor is essentially a proximity sensor which can sense when an object is close. This clever sensor helps you to park your car by measuring distance from nearby objects, such as a wall or another car, indicating when you are getting close to the object by emitting a beeping or buzzing noise. With most parking sensors, the closer the car gets to the object, the more fast paced the beeping becomes, designed to alert the driver to the nearing proximity of the object and the impending collision. Parking sensors are particularly useful when trying to squeeze into a small parking space with little room to manoeuvre and can help you to avoid damaging your car or someone else's car or property.

Parking sensors can be either ultrasonic or electromagnetic sensors, and are placed at both the front and rear of the vehicle, usually housed in the corner end of each bumper. The parking sensors work in conjunction with a control unit which will be located in the car, usually on the dashboard. When the parking sensors detect an object within close proximity, a message is sent to the control unit which activates the beeping alert. Some parking sensor kits provide digital readouts on a screen which tell the driver the distance of the object from the car and some are fitted with a camera. There are a whole range of parking sensor kits on the market. It's worth investing in the Peugeot parking sensor kit to ensure compatibility with the make and model of your vehicle.

Generally proximity sensors are very accurate and dependable and usually have a long working life. Problems can occur with the parking sensors, however, and indication that there's a fault can come in the absence of a beep or a change in the usual pattern of the beep when parking the vehicle. The sensors can get blocked and if there are problems such as water seeping into the wiring loom, this can cause the sensors to malfunction. Getting advice from a professional to establish the fault is always a good idea. When you need to replace the parking sensors on your vehicle or are looking to fit parking sensors for the first time, choosing the Peugeot parking sensor kit will guarantee complete compatibility with the make and model of your car.

Peugeot trivia

• It was also in 1913 (some might say because of the Indy 500 win) that Peugeot were responsible for the production of half of all of the cars in France. That quickly made them one of the world's biggest names in the automotive industry.
• It's hard to believe, but the Peugeot company was founded in 1810! Of course, it didn't make cars then. Instead, it built pepper mills, salt mills and, eventually bicycles. It wasn't until 1889 that the first Peugeot car was made (they only made four of them, and they were powered by steam).
• It's a dubious claim to fame, but the first recorded stolen car was a Peugeot! The car, belonging to Baron de Zuylen, was nicked by his mechanic in 1896, but the thief was caught, and the car returned to its rightful owner.
• All models of Peugeot have a number designation with a 0 in the middle. There's a persistent myth that this is because the designers wanted to integrate the starting handle, and chose the central 0 as the ideal way to hide the slot. There's no substance to that myth, but those numbers are an indication of the size and age of the car.
• Peugeot has won the European Car of the Year an incredible five times. The earliest win was in 1969, and the latest was as recently as 2017 (the Peugeot 3008).
