I have a SEL 4motion Atlas. I got a basket for the hitch and when attached ultrasonic parking sensors sound constantly and backing up at any more then a few MPH triggers to the emergency braking. I found the setting to disable the braking, but never found out how the disable the parking sensors other then manually turning all the volumes down.

When towing a real trailer does hooking up the trailer lights disable this or is there some setting I'm missing to let the car know you're towing?

I believe the parking sensor can be deactivated by pushing the button next to the shifter.

If you mean the button with a "P" and a traffic cone. It does turn off the sensors but it also turns off the backup camera.
