curb alert problem
Just installed curb alert unit o my 2006 per instructions. Problem is it works fine approaching curb, but it beeps at incoming traffic. I calibrated iy many times and tested it at 4 inches .also if I push any buttons on the dash, such as gas or travel etc. it beeps every time. Called manuf. and they keep saying recalibrate. They claim they never had this problem and unit is fine for that car. Thanks for your advise.

I get a few false alarms but it's mostly with dips in the road.
Good luck.

I have curb alert, and it's set for 12 inches from the curb. I don't know how high you have the sensor, but it sounds to high.
I also recommend when you have set, use RTV in the hinges so it will never move incase you bump it.

Beeping when buttons pushed, might be powered wrong
