Just a question about the back up sensors on the Armada? Has anyone had an issue with them staying on (constant tone) when it is below freezing? I had mine washed and dried it off in a heated shop. The windchill here is 25 below zero and now when it is in reverse I get a constant tone. I tried cleaning the "lenses" on the rear bumper with no luck. My garage is at 5 below zero now. I am just wondering if the soap froze to the lense and is giving it a false reading.
Thanks

Well when the windchill hit 25 below it was a heat wave. When I woke up this morning it was 44 below with the wind and the actual air temp was 15 below. I don't know how (or why) we do it either.

Now that it has warmed up (15-18 degrees above zero) they seem to work fine. Just have to deal with the fact that it is now not too cold to snow... :eek:

Thanks to all who replied

Just wanted to say thanks to all who replied. It is the extreme cold that effects the sensors in the bumper if they get wet. The techs at Nissan told me that this is unavoidable in that kind of cold.
Just in case anyone is wondering yesterday it was 51 degrees in Northeast Wisconsin. I washed and waxed my Armada outside.
Old saying around here, "if you don't like the weather wait 10 minutes...".
December 24 air temp was 17 below with 44 below zero wind chill.
December 31 was air temp of 51 and all the snow melted in 2 days...
