Hello,

Was wondering if anyone had had this problem and would be able to assist me;

rear parking sensors dont seem to be working, no beep when engaging reverse (as used to be the case in my ZS) and also no beep when I remove key and lights are left on.

With the tow bar on the back I could reverse up to my wall until I hear a crunch but i would rather not do that.

Simple fix?

Thanks in advance

Jonathan

They were working for the previous owner but did stop working for a short time but started working again so he didnt need to do anything about it.

May need to follow the wires back as it sounds like a break.

Slightly off topic I was looking at Parking sensors.co.uk and you can get some nice installation kits that can include front sensors that are compatable with out CAN system. Anyone tried any of them?

I tried replacing various sensors when I had that problem and it turned out to be a simple break. This is the first I've heard of the lights left on sound being associated with sensors though
