Used parking sensors vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
Yes, parking sensors were available on the Ford B-Max as a factory-fitted option or standard feature on certain higher trim levels, so genuine used OEM sensors do exist for this model. The B-Max was produced from 2012 to 2017 as a single generation with no significant facelift splitting the range, so there is only one generation to consider. Rear parking sensors were the most common fitment, and if you are buying used, check whether the set you are sourcing matches your bumper's sensor hole count and layout, as this can vary by specification.
Because the B-Max ran as a single uninterrupted generation from 2012 to 2017 with no mid-life structural facelift that changed the bumper tooling or sensor specification, a sensor from a 2013 car stands a good chance of being compatible with a 2016 car. That said, sensor colour, connector type, and the control module may vary by build date or specification, so confirm with the breaker against your exact registration before buying. Never assume colour will match your bumper finish without checking.
Trim level does not affect the fundamental compatibility of the parking sensor units themselves — the sensors, wiring connectors, and ECU interface are determined by the sensor system fitted, not whether the car is a Zetec or Titanium. What does differ is that Titanium and higher trims were more likely to have parking sensors fitted as standard, while lower trims like Zetec may have had them as a dealer-fitted option or not at all, so the wiring and control module may or may not already be present in your car. The breaker can advise on whether a complete sensor kit including the module is needed if your car was not originally sensor-equipped.
The B-Max was typically fitted with four rear parking sensors, and where front sensors were included this would bring the total to eight, though front sensors were less common and usually tied to higher specification packs. You must match the sensor count to the number of holes in your bumper, as fitting a different number will leave blanked holes or gaps. Confirm with the breaker exactly how many sensors are in the set they are offering and whether a front or rear kit is being supplied.
Ford did share parking sensor part numbers across several models in this era, and physically identical sensors may appear across the Fiesta, EcoSport, and B-Max ranges given shared platform architecture. However, whether a sensor from another model is electrically and dimensionally compatible with your specific B-Max bumper and module depends on build date and specification, so this is something to confirm with the breaker against your registration rather than assume. Colour matching to your bumper will also need checking regardless of which donor car the sensor comes from.
Give the breaker your full registration number so they can check the exact specification of your B-Max, including whether your car originally had sensors fitted and how many holes are in your bumper. It is also worth telling them whether you need front, rear, or both sets, and your bumper colour code if you want sensors pre-painted to match. The B-Max ran from 2012 to 2017 as one generation, so a sensor from any year within that range is the most likely donor pool, but let the breaker verify connector and module compatibility before you commit.
