I broke my front inner parking assist sensor on my 2016 Silverado 2500hd duramax.  The part number is 52050133 but I cannot find that part anywhere.  I bought a 52050134 and also found that the parking sensors are not positional, meaning they can be put anywhere!  I'm not so sure, as most parts places online are showing this number as the rear position!  

 

I'm asking the community for help in determining if, in fact, this 52050134 sensor is fine for the front, AND, how do I get my parking assist system reset in order to stop the flashing yellow light on my dash button.

 

I have pulled the battery cables - all 4 - and zip tied the positive and negative cables together on one set of one battery to discharge the capacitors.  That didn't clear everything as hoped.  I would buy a diagnostic tool but this is a very specific issue and I don't want to waste money if it won't do what I need.  The dealerships of course, won't tell me how to fix this, but that may be what I need to do - take it to a dealer.

 

Any help would be appreciated and thankful for!

Did you try turning off the park assist in the vehicle settings?

Hmmm, I have not!  That's a great idea.  I will try that tomorrow.  However, while in the settings for that, I did turn it off then back on but didn't drive it.  Not sure if it will make a difference but worth a try.  

 

Update:  I spoke to a reputable, IMO, dealer about the flashing P/assist light and he'd never heard of, or been asked about it, at all!  I did recheck the numbers on the sensors I bought and they DO match up with the newer numbers from the dealers!  I did buy these off Ebay - set of four cost $23... - so wondering if they are all defective!  

 

Not sure how to test them to be sure they are working though.  

 

Thanks!

Don't know how you found this, but thanks!  I had checked Ebay several times but it never gave me this seller!

    • Thanks everyone for the help!   I'm going to stop into the scales one of these days and weigh my axels, for the time being, I am going to run Toyo's recommendations and also do a chalk test. I have a tire shop that's going to try their scanner to reprogram and set the the factory psi values lower, and if they can't I'm going to order a scanner and do it myself!
    • You won’t do better than stock exhaust without headers. Just put your favorite muffler on it and it will do the job. 
    • I have seen different people in different places post different sizes of exhaust as stock for my 2014 Sierra L83. Some say 2.5 some say 2.75. I am considering replacing the muffler with a Dynomax Super Turbo, perhaps 17739.  I had the factory L83 5.3 replaced with another L83 5.3 from Jasper Engines. I also put new Walker Cat / Y pipe on. I would appreciate opinions suggestions about what would be a good muffler setup. My main interest is a low rumble and the best flow / fuel mileage I can get. Not interested in straight through glass packs or loud exhaust. Those days are way behind me now.  Thanks Guys.  
    • Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB 20-NA-166 -  20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"     I'd say its the head, and its either leaking at the casting line and dripping down the intake into the cylinder, or its another spot on the casting itself at the cylinder that is getting wet.  
    • Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.
