Front parking sensors

Post by bazza138 » Sun Feb 28, 2021 5:31 pm

afternoon all .

I after bit of help and advice!
After a wiring diagram or a solution .

So far ,
Parking sensors not working, fuse ok 10amp . Rear sensors I can hear clicking from each one , fronts not .
So Front bumper off , changed all sensors.
And Still no joy . Also no dc from any pins from front connect plug .

So not sure if this runs through a relay ??
Any help or ideas
Thanks In Advance Barry

Have you checked the dash switch that turns them on and off?

have you checked the connector you have to disconnect to remove the bumper?
There's 3, one will be for the sensors - probably the biggest of the connectors.
The other 2 will be fog lights and air temp sensor.

sorry, just noticed you put that in your first post.
The bumper's off mine at the mo so I'll check for voltage tomorrow if I remember.

Have you checked the connector into the PDC controller? behind the left hand side boot trim?
