Honda Sensing front radar sensor location?

[Xmetal]

Where is the front radar sensor for Honda Sensing located in the FL5? Everywhere I read, it says that Honda Sensing is consist of a front camera mounted on the top windshield, which I see AND a front radar sensor located behind the lower front bumper grille, which I don't apparently see? Does the FL5 even uses a front radar sensor for Honda Sensing?

The reason I'm asking is that sometime, I get a "bong" and the honda sensing symbol goes red for a few seconds and then turns green again. Sometime, this happens a few times. I had verified that the top windshield camera is clean. However, I was wondering if the car does have a front radar sensor, then may be that area needs to be clean to prevent this intermittent system shutting off? Anyone have this happened and solved it? Thanks.

On 11g Accords the sensor is behind the H emblem. Moved from the lower grill location on the 10g due to theft being so easy.
With that said, I haven’t removed my front bumper cover to know if there is a radar/sensor attached behind our red H emblem. Sorry

I know that in the winter when my windshield is clean but I'm getting a lot of sleet/snow on my bumper I lose the ability to use some of the sensing features so for sure there is something in the bumper/grill area somewhere.

2022+ Civics do not have a radar sensor. It is only the camera in the windshield.

I think these are just for parking though, not for any of the adaptive cruise options. Still technically part of the Honda Sensing package. My guess is when my bumper gets covered in snow these are covered up and technically part of the sensing package doesn't work which is why I get the error message.

R's have nothing in the bumper. Just swapped mine yesterday.

Canadian Type R's do have the sensors. They are parking sensors and have a separate error.

My wife has a 26 Hybrid I drive a lot so I guess I'm getting those mixed up.
