I have a wire , or what looks to be a copper wire that runs across the windshield on the inside before the radar sensor as it mounts to the windshield.
Does anyone else have this or know why its like that.
So if you look at the sensor it looks like the wire runs straight through the middle of its line of site dividing the sensors view right at about the halfway mark.
Hope that makes sense.
Imagine a square and a wire running across it through the center right behind the windshield but smashed to the windhsield by the radar sensor.

I hate posting new threads and asking something thats been probably asked before so yes I did search this in alot of different ways before asking. Ill delete it as soon as someone post an answer. I appreciate it and sorry for the silly question.

Well, you don’t know if you don’t ask and there are a gazillion threads on here to search thru. Sometimes search function is okay and sometimes not. ?

there's no deleting posts
you have to suffer the full weight of embarrassment for eternity.
generations later they will find archives of old forgotten websites and it will become fodder at universities across the nation discussing the rise and fall of social media and how it affected families and individuals as a whole.
Just enjoy your wire across the camera....before long you wont even remember its there or even the purpose.
Lol, I swear you sound like my Dad. This is definitely what he would say.
Delete? We don’t have a stinking delete!!! You wear it for eternity or you bribe a mod…
Ah shit......
No more dumb questions from me. This is definitely a job for ..... a fake account lol ? ?
