At some point since 2019 our 2014 Honda Odyssey EX-L backup sensors just mysteriously stopped working for no apparent reason.

As a result of this, the van has had 3 rear end incidents as the result of backing the vehicle up (as the sensors no longer worked).

As I am prepping the van for a road trip this year, I thought just for the heck of it I would buy a new backup sensor switch…just in case that was the culprit.

10 second job to replace…and…nope!

I searched the internet for “honda odyssey 2014 parking sensor blinks” and this little gem popped up.

WHO KNEW YOU COULD TURN ONLY THE REAR SENSORS OFF.

NOT DISABLE TEMPORARILY…BUT TURN OFF INDEFINITELY.
