SODL/ SODR

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Lincoln Continental. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The SODL and SODR are radar based sensors that are located rearward of the rear wheel under the bumper cover. These sensors detect targets for the BLIS ® and CTA system. The modules are capable of storing Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) for the BLIS ® or CTA system when a concern exists. The SODL and SODR communicate through the MS-CAN.

The SODL and SODR require PMI when replaced. Refer to: Module Configuration - System Operation and Component Description .
