Anyone else have the sound of their backup parking sensors change. Today I got to the truck and the sound is coming from the dash to the right of the steering wheel. The actual sound has changed too. I’ve had the truck for over 2 years and the sound has always sounded like it came out of the head rest/rear cab area. The truck is a 2018 802A. I’ve tried Turning off the option and then back on. Not sure if something broke or not.

Sounds like something is wrong to me. Mine (18 802) always comes from the rear. Does the sound come from the front when the truck detects an obstacle in front of the truck, what does the sensor diagram on the infotainment display show?

There are no sensors in the front.

If the sound is coming from the dash, and has a hollow, tinny sound, you’ve got a bad speaker connect.
adjust the balance / fade with a song playing at reasonable volumes and when you hear nothing, that’s the connection issue.
I had this happen when I swapped speakers. a few weeks later, I got the above symptoms, right rear door speaker connection was stretched and loose. Gorilla taped to the dynamat, moved on. happened a couple weeks later to front passenger door. Pulled all of them, Gorilla taped the wire to the dynamat to make sure I didn’t wiggle it loose and it wouldn’t get pulled loose. no problems since.

I noticed it sounds different. I recently updated the Sync software. I assumed it was related to the update.
I had this happen to me on my 2019 about a month ago. It was defiantly a different sound and really threw me off but it only lasted for one day, maybe 6-8 ignition cycles. It was back to normal after sitting overnight.
