Proximity sensors
« on: October 16, 2024, 01:28:22 pm »
Hi,  for some reason the parking sensors on my wife's CX5 have stopped working. The sensor activation button still seems to work in that its lamp goes on/off when it is pressed. The sensors no longer react to anything near the car.  However for some reason the reversing sensor does still operate correctly.

I don't even know which fuse to check so help and ideas please before I have to endure the dealers sucked teeth and financial thumping!!  :(

Thank you

Nick

May help, though these sensors not detailed;

When you take respective fuse box cover off there is normally embossed
lettering giving individual fuse assignments.

To avoid the analysis charge from the stealer [£120 in my area:(],
consider using a mobile auto sparky. I can recommend one
that covers Thames Valley, but your profile gives no location for you.

Hi,
Just checked the site and saw your reply - thank you.
I'm in Dorset right on the Hampshire border.
I have bee having a play and lo and behold the parking sensors have returned to normal working.
Heaven only knows what was done and by whom but they work after baking into a telegraph poll and causing some damage.
Glad it was me and not my better half.
Thanks again

Nick
