Default Blind spot monitor recalibration

Hello, I recently purchased a 2019 f type R AWD that had some bumper damage and was replaced. The sensors seem to be in place and all plugged in from what I can see but it was sold to me as is and I get a warning “sos system” and “blind spot monitoring not Available”. Previous owner told me it needed to be recalibrated. All seems good but the FCW and RCW as well as the blind spot monitors do not work. Is there anyone that has experience with this ? Or know how to recalibrate the system without going to the dealership ? I’ve seen they are able to do it but I’d prefer to fix it myself if possible. Any help is much appreciated.

Best of luck on getting your issues resolved. I had some dumb-*** beotch turn in front of me a few weeks ago and we kissed corner to corner. Now my F-type is in the shop getting repaired as I write this. Bumper cover repair, headlamp, spoiler and washer replacement along with hood supports and other stuff that rang up a $8700 bill while all she got were scratches on her $1100 Kia! The body shop said I'd probably have to take it to a dealer to get the headlamps, lane sensors and anything else that was disconnected get recalibrated. Fortunately, mine will be covered under the insurance but I have to make an appointment and drive 120 miles to do it. Hmmmm......maybe the insurance company will pay for a flatbed to pick it up and bring it back. The worst part is that I was waiting for mcphill's new Project 7 grill and frame to be completed and was hoping to have that installed while the nose is repaired. Now its going to probably be late September before before those parts are available and I'll have to pull the nose off again. Damn!
