its great when it was working right. I havent had the time to go to the dealer to have it looked at.

I hope Serge's problem isn't highly contagious. I just bought ChrisAU's unused shock sensor. I plan on installing it next saturday.

I have both without any issues since last May besides the heater duct fell off when I was driving. I'm knocking on wood though.

anyone have the install instructions? I'm pretty good at installing so i might give it a whirl.. and I'm guessing the dealer needs to reprogram the system to accept the sensors..?

its very straight foward. When i ordered them, they came with install instructions as well as the Release codes to allow dealer to reprogram bcm. heads up though, if your thinking of doing the shock sensor and then the tilt sensor later, id advise doing both at the same time. One sensor harness plugs into the other sensor. If you install the harness that dosent have the hook up for the other sensor, its going to be a pain to try and remove the harness from the Bcm connector.

its very straight foward.

If you want one at a time...the tilt sensor has both plugs for tilt and shock...so order tilt first then later you could order the shock sensor.

And just like you said, when you order whichever part, it comes with install instructions (very simple install) and the codes for programming...

yea but the downside of doing one and then the other later is that you got to pay for reprogramming 2x
