Basso Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 My daughters 2002 1.0l K11 SE has parking sensors fitted. When the car is put in reverse, there is a beep, but the sensors do not activate. Any idea what I can do to fix this, where on the car should I check? Thanks
Trevor Posted December 1, 2016 Posted December 1, 2016 You should switch the ignition on (engine off) and put into reverse gear. Listen closely to each sensor and if they are working then they should emit a clicking sound. If not, then replace the sensor
Basso Posted December 2, 2016 Author Posted December 2, 2016 Thanks for the reply. Does that mean if none of them click they are all U/S? None of them respond when reversing at the moment, although we do get the beep on going into reverse. Is there a control module somewhere that might not be working?
Trevor Posted December 7, 2016 Posted December 7, 2016 It is a very faint clicking noise you should hear but I doubt all the sensors are faulty. If it bleeps when you put it in reverse then the system is working to a degree (e.g. it is activating and the reverse switch is working) so if the sensors are okay then it must be a faulty module. Worth checking the reverse light bulb is working while you're carrying out checks
