Back-Up Sensor Disable?

Hi, I searched FTE and found nothing. Has anyone figured out how to eliminate the reverse back up sensor alarm?

I know I can just hit the off button when I go into reverse but believe it or not I am actually tired of doing that. Doing it multiple times every day has taken its toll on my mental health!

I have successfully disabled ALL other beeps and dings thanks to FTE! This is the last one!!!

I am hoping that there is a more "professional" way to do this besides just yanking the fuse out.

Thanks for your replies (I Hope)

I wish mine would auto-disable when my trailer is connected, like my Suburban backup warning does..(and tells me thru the console)..

the system KNOWS there is a trailer attached

Yeah, I mean when a trailer is hooked up, which for me is almost every day. I just spent 14 days on the road going from job to job and I never unhook. Every time I back up I have to hit the stupid button.

It should auto disable Sam, would be nice.
