03/04 Reverse Sensors

Why do some 03'/04' expeditions have 2 backup senors in the rear bumper and some have 4 sensors. I emailed Ford 5 months ago with no a response.

From what I understand the early 03's had 2. All late 2003 have 4. I'm not sure what the 04 has.

Ford switched from 2 to 4 because 2 didn't work as well.

Original setup had a radar sensor (hidden) in the middle and 2 ultrasonic sensors in the bumper.

This was changed to the 4 ultrasonic sensors with no radar (cost cutting measure? Never saw complaints about the original sensors).

There were other changes done at the same time. I don't remember all of them but I do remember the omission of the cigarette lighter 12V socket in the ashtray. Most of the changes were trim items and most were cost cutting measures.

I hope this explains your question.
