Did you have the sensors working on this bumper previously, or was it all part of the larger install?
Yea,
Original bumper had the sensors installed, easy removal and re-plugged into the new location. Marked and placed in the same location. No Warning lights that said anything was not working, but I get no alert when I back up.

I’ve heard that adding backup sensors to aftermarket bumpers can be tricky. My only suggestion would be searching for threads from people who have done it. I would expect it to cause more aggressive alerts than none at all, though. You could also double check that the fuse didn’t get tripped.

I did it on my JL, not great results. Sold the JL, bought a JT, not my problem now.
