Front parking sensor

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!

      2018 Silverado Console USB Port Not Working

      By Tbhats2130 · Posted

      My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.

      The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
