Ford Transit Connect 2003-12/2013 Westfalia Swan Neck Towbar
Hi I have a 2011 transit connect with reversing sensors will fitting a tow bar interfere with the sensors?

Hi Mark,
With a fixed bar we can't actually say definitely either way whether the bar will be seen by the sensors, Parking sensors will all have slightly different orientations so 1 model may pick up the bar whilst another vehicle (even same make/model) may not.
For a vehicle with parking sensors we would normally recommend a detachable bar.
