Radar location.

[Andy J]

Does anyone know where the radar for the ACC is located? All my front assistanse systems keeps getting turned off now that the roads are covered in snow. Anyone else having the same issue? Lane assist etc I don't really miss, but the ACC is handy. This is on an European Luxury (Trophy).

The radar is a small body coloured square in the centre of the grill at the bottom.

However, it also seems to require the camera which is located behind the windscreen at the top, behind the mirror. This usually takes longer to defrost so it sometimes isn't clear enough causing errors.

I get the same behaviour on my Zoe when the camera fogs up. It starts complaining that the fron camera has no visibility.
Weirdly enough, I cannot turn on the main beams when it's happening, only the dipped beams...

It is a double confirmation system to prevent a radar pickup from causing a false positive.

I see! Thank you for clarifying!
