Scope Posted July 18, 2009 Report Posted July 18, 2009 Since washing my car (03, 1.9TDI) with a pressure washer (might be a coincidence) the front parking sensors seems to go solid every now and then, despite not being close to anything - so I suspect 1/many of them might be broken. I have tried to listen out for clicks (as read elsewhere), but cant hear anything, front or back. My question is, if I bought the Quote

Mirez Posted July 19, 2009 Report Posted July 19, 2009 I live in Swindon, not far from yourself. :D Happy to do it for you, next week sucks for me though - maybe one evening? Quote
Scope Posted July 25, 2009 Author Report Posted July 25, 2009 Thanks to Mirez' help I have now diagnosed the problem. In case it is useful to others in the future: The sensor measured correctly, but it would not reset - so once it had a reading of say 20cm (constant beep) it would beep every time I reversed. Now I just need to get another sensor and try to change it. :unsure: Thanks alot for your help Mirez. Quote
