Rear parking sensors - disabling one sensor

I read that 10for cash or somone (excuse my failing memory) had successfully "disabled" parking sensors simply by taping ove the sensor to stop reflections, and voila... and in fact - this mostly works for me too - but sometimes not - sometimes "it" can still "see" that I have the tow hitch and tregg coupling connected etc...

Is there another way of disabling a sensor? A computer setting that LE can do to tell it only 3 should be working, or a wiring cross-over?

cheers,

Simon

why disable one, surely two would need disabling otherwise is one out of alignment. I have no issues with mine.

what you need is butal rubber tape, this will compleatly kill all ultrasonic emmissions.

electrical coax seal or self amalgamating tape is the job.
