Rear Door Sensors

[AFisher17]

I had the Grenadier wrapped... Now my back door sensors aren't connecting. Slamming the doors shut didn't make a difference. The sensors are the little cones? Hoping they just need t be aligned. Thoughts.

I’d go back to your vendor who did the wrap…maybe they damaged the sensor

I haven't had mine wrapped and my rear door sensors go off constantly.
It has been back to the dealer 3 times to get sorted and no luck.
I can't lock the vehicle with the key most of the time and often when it does work I find the alarm going off sometime later (usually 2 am) because the sensor has detected the door open
This has been happening for last 5 months.

Get a torch and stare into the cone holes . Clean any grime etc.
Yes the sensors can be adjusted. Top and bottom.

That'll do it.
I prefer "torch" to "flashlight"

I was born there...left in 1970
Gerry Anderson made a series called Torchy the Battery Boy , a bit before I was born.

I remember Torchy the Battery Boy! How sad is that

My wife’s popping down to Australia for a month this summer - visiting her brother.

I’m staying home with the dogs.

Blocked in the country of its creation. Censorship at its finest!

Hello, I had this issue as well, rear door alert would come on when encountering rough terrain or the door was closed too gently. I added a 1/16 washer behind each of the three bolts on the upper latch on the larger rear door. (My washers were too large but it is what I had around the garage and fit fine)Since then we have not had any issues with the rear door sensor.

The cone receptacles are just “dumb” allignment / centering guides, there are zero electrical connections to them.
