Default Changing Symphony for DD

Hi All, I have just changed my Rover 75 1.8 for a 2.0 Conny CDT SE
I removed Seans DD and refitted the original Harmony to the 1.8

The question is, when I fit the DD how does it affect the reversing sensors,
or rather do the sensors still work through the DD.

Thanks, Terry.

There is no connection at all between DD and the reversing sensors, they are completely independant.

The DD does have a reverse input, but only to switch it to use a reversing camera, should you wish to fit one.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.

That may depend upon the model, my Mk II sounder is in the instrument panel. Just to confirm it, take original radio out and check you still have working reverse sensors.

Thanks to both of you I was hoping for a separate sounder.

I will fit the DD this week, I just need to fit a crank shaft pulley first
Does anyone know where I could buy one from.

Thanks. Terry
