From the manual:
Note:The system turns on every time you switch the ignition on. To permanently switch the system off, contact an authorized dealer.

Maybe code it out with forscan?

From an F150 forum. Requires Forscan.

It gives 2 options didable with forescan or unplug the wire. I will try the wire first. Does any know the color wire and location?

The way I read it sounds like you'd have to do 2 things. First, locate the wire coming from the sensor in the rear bumper and disconnect (or cut) it. Then you'll still get a warning each time you start the car. Forscan lets you turn off the warning. I would try Forscan first and see if that does the whole thing.

The alarm will stop with just the wire cut or unplug that is mostly what I want. The location and color of the wire is needed.

This is from a thread on how to add the sensors.

OEM wire color	Function	Pin # at the rear bumper connector (C405)	Pin # at sensor	Color I used at sensor	Pin # at the BCM connector (C2280D)
Yellow with orange stripe	right outer signal	11	2	Brown	7
Yellow with gray stripe	right inner signal	10	2	Purple	8
Green witth white strpe	- VDC	6	3	Green	27
White with orange stripe	left inner signal	5	2	White	24
Yellow with green stripe	left outer signal	4	2	Yellow	23
Blue with white stripe	+ VDC	3	1	Blue	26

This stuff is beyond my pay grade, so at this point I'll just wish you luck.

The whole thing is a BUS system connected directly to the control unit in the front of the dashboard.
Cutting something can give you some nice gismos.
Simply code it out with ForScan...

What is your actual problem?
The beeping only occurs when an obstacle is detected.
If you have a continuous beep or something similar, this is not normal.
It should also be possible to change the volume.

I put a walker carrier on my car. It beeps every time I reverse.

I would pull the pin for GND (GNWH) as a test, probably at the BCM (passenger footwell).
If the system then shuts down without an error message, put a switch in the line wired to the center console, so that you can switch it on and off as required.
(C405 is behind the rear bumper and for other things too, it is much more effort to reach.)


If that doesn't work, then just use ForScan.
