Range Rover Evoque: Sensor blockage

If one of the sensors is completely obscured the BSM system is automatically disabled, the warning indicator dot is displayed in the exterior mirror and the message BSM sensor blocked appears in the message centre.

Note: Blockage testing is only initiated when vehicle speed is above 32km/h (20mph) and will take at least two minutes of accumulated driving above this speed, to determine that the sensor is blocked.

If the sensors become blocked, then please check that there is nothing obscuring the rear bumper and that it is clear from ice, frost and dirt.

Note: The BSM system is inoperative while a trailer is attached and the trailer socket is used.
