Sensors, Lighting, Body and Sealing Guides
Part of the Electrical, body and sealing guides.
Electronic control and exterior finish: sensors and actuators, lamps and lighting, body panels, mirrors and the seals that keep water out. These guides cover diagnosis and fitment for the parts that sit around the vehicle rather than inside the drivetrain.
Body, trim and sealing
Exterior panels, lamps, mirrors and seals decide fit, water tightness and appearance.

Frequently asked questions
Why does a sensor fault not always mean a failed sensor?
Wiring, connectors and voltage supply cause a large share of sensor codes. Check the circuit and live data before replacing the part.
What causes water leaks into the cabin?
Usually a failed seal, blocked drain or incorrect panel fit after a repair. Trace the water path before replacing trim.
