Backup alarm won't stay disabled... - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I have tried to disable the backup alarm a few times in my car. I know it's a feature...but the beeping drives me a little nuts, and it is WAY too over cautious...I know where the back of the car is, and it's panicking like I'm going to smash something when I'm still over a foot away from it.

Anyways, I go into config, vehicle options, collision detection, and disable it...then drive around and it's off. Get out, do something, get back in the car, start it back up, and it's re-enabled...wtf?

What can I do?

...if it matters, my car is a 2010 2SS M6.

I had call Customer service and they had told me everytime you turn off the vehicle it will turn back on. So you will have to disable it again every time you would want it to be off. Mine is off as of right now and will be off, I install two after market amplifiers and something must of got disconnected which they don't work right now.

Does your dash give you any warnings about it since it doesn't work? If not, maybe I can just unplug the sensors in my bumper
