Default Front Bumper Parking Sensors

Hey guys I got a 2013 Lexus GS350 F Sport and one my front parking sensors is out because once I'm at a stop it starts to beep and pop up on my screen so I turned it off. Is there any way to figure out where which one is bad or where to purchase one besides from the dealership? Thanks in advance!

Did you get this resolved?

I've got the same issue on my 2013 F Sport RWD. Mine is one of the front 2 center. I can toggle it on/off and it will work for a few seconds before I get the error. I'm kicking the idea of trying this myself. Is there a good DIY for getting the bumper off? I just don't have any help for getting the bumper back on and lining everything up. I also need to do front rotors, pads, and tires. I'm staring at a BIG bill...inspection due in 2 months so need to get it all done.

I've been in the same boat for years. Not long after I bought mine, one of the front sensors started complaining.

I pulled the code, and I know which it is, but the combination of the sensor replacement cost and work of removing the bumper has kept me from addressing it.

I even bought a salvaged sensor once, but when it arrived, it had clearly been painted w touch-up paint, and they gave me a refund.

What price have you been quoted?

I think the sensor new is around $250 online w/ Lexus paint. (I certainly don't want touchup or something that doesn't match). I read Lexus is around $750 all in.

This seems like the right spot for this question: I have a 2016 GS350 Fsport and the front park assist sensors in the grille are pushed back and causing the indicator to beep and show incorrect position info. The lexus site doesn't have a good picture or descriptor. Does anyone have a part number or link for the replacements? And are the bumper mounted sensor retainer clips different than the grille clips?

Also a link for how to get to the sensors would be appreciated. I've seen the link to the IS 350 bumper removal but it doesn't go far enough.

Thanks
