The parking sersors are installed at the back of the rear trim, but, the side trim was on the top of rear trim, so, you have to remove the side trim first, (photo #3)

Be careful there was a hook at the back of the side trim, don't pull towards to yourself, should be pull towards to the rear of car. (photo #4)

 

Now you can remove the rear trim & found the sensor mount behind the trim (photo #5)
unplug the signal cable & remove the sensor from the sensor mount carefully (photo #6)

It was black in color, you have to spray it to match your own (photo #8)

 

This kind of "easy clip" was very fit in the correct position, so you just need to press it back until you hear a "click" sound (photo #9)

The last photo shown what the clips looks like, both up & down (photo #10)

 

Nice work, nice detail.

Very few of the W210 series were delivered in the US with that option, but it's useful across other model lines, too. I'm sure my friend's W215///AMG is just like that.

Take care and enjoy the ride,

Very well done, thanks for sharing with us! :thumbsup:

The tool in your picture is known as a putty knife here in the U.S.

How did you know which of the 10 sensors to replace?

 

Forgot to mention that...... sure you should have "Mercedes Benz Diagnostic Computer" to find out which one is dead at the beginning.

and thanks for giving the "tool name"
sorry for my poor English

 

parking sensor not working after replacing the sensor also

hi everyone,

ive seen this thread and replaced my front parking sensor with a new one myself but still it is not working. old sensor is broken because my friend hit a tree in the parking lot @15mph there is no damage to the bumper but the tree exactly hit to the parking sensor and it is broken. ive noticed it broken when i open the strip on the bumper where sensors are placed by using the above said tool. I replaced it with a new one still it is not working. all connections are perfectly alright. Is there any other method to reset the parking sensors manually? TIA. your reply is most appreciated. :angel
