Locating the Pre-Collision Assist Sensors

Lincoln Nautilus. Locating the Pre-Collision Assist Sensors

Camera. Radar sensor (if equipped).

If a message regarding a blocked sensor or camera appears in the information display, something is obstructing the radar signals or camera images. The radar sensor is behind the fascia cover in the center of the lower grille. With a blocked sensor or camera, the system may not function, or performance may reduce.
