Check for DTCs with Forscan or equivalent. It will have DTC codes if it is malfunctioning. Or you can set up a test with a car approaching from the right while you are in reverse. It should give you an alarm.
From the looks of the damage it is above the BLISS module, and if your not getting any errors, your probably OK.
That'd be me too.
Most of those scrap yards will give you a short warranty. Check if electrical applies.
Not sure what he was quoting you. A new OEM light without the BLIS module lists for $1000, and the BLIS radar module is another $600. Maybe he's quoting used or blackmarket.
My wife would probably say it was you fault. I, on the other hand would say, that the back camera and sensors must not be working. If you would get them fixed, this wouldn't have happened. "Just sayin"When I mow the grass I move my truck to the driveway to get the mower out of the garage. I did not bother to move it back to its normal parking spot when I finished mowing as it was late and supper was ready. This morning when the wife left for work, she backed smack into the back end of it. Uggggh!
I think I can nudge the bumper back into place, but the tail light is another issue. Has anyone found a good place to purchase the tail lights with the Bliss system?
Is it possible the Bliss module is still good and I can install it into a new light housing?
I've got a crack in one of my tail l lights but my bliss sensor works fine so I will swap out the lens
I have found everything from $700 to $1800 in salvage parts. The Ebay listing says it is new OEM, but I am leery of buying this off of ebay and it being stolen from someone else. I may just bite the bullet and get the junkyard version and know it came from a wrecked one and has the Ranger badging on it as well.
To check the BLISS, I would think that you could put the truck in reverse and have someone walk or drive up to it perpendicular and see if you get the chime.
