Join me as I work through the various issues that could be causing my BMW parking sensors to go haywire on my 2008 BMW X5 E70. I've narrowed it down to 5 key points to check if you're having similar issues.
What to check:
1. Dirty Sensors - 1:18
2. Error Codes - 1:35
3. Wiring - 2:50
4. De-coupling Ring - 3:34
5. Water Ingress - 4:46
6. Bumper Removal - 6:27

Small update 10 months later: Beeping has come back. Pressure washer is definitely the culprit. In the last wash, I forgot to stay back from the sensors with the spray. Lesson learned.

Thanks for the video. Step 5 in your research is definitely the most common problem, sensors getting wet. After a recent downpour of rain, I got a "service parking sensors" alarm on my dash screen (2017 RAM 3500 HD truck). This happened once before but cleared itself once the truck completely dried out. I saw another RU-vid video where spraying a bit of WD40 directly into the sensors right on the bumper, using a rag to wipe away any excess, cures this problem rather quickly. The WD40 drives out any moisture trapped inside the sensors. Easy fix without having to remove anything, much less the entire bumper. This works on all parking sensors on most any vehicle. Hope this helps. .

Great insight, thanks Phil. It seems water is the most common cause. Worth having a spare can of WD40 in the car for perking sensor emergencies!

That WD-40 trick worked for me on my 2013 Cadillac XTS. 👌🏽

Hi! You, Sir, are incredibly helpful. Thank you SO much for posting this!! ❤️ I was on my way home during a sad but pesky snow storm. (It wasn’t the amount I wanted, it was not enough lol) My front censor went on non-stop for over a minute - which feels like FOREVER because it’s so loud. Snow of something kicked up and stuck on it. I’ve cleaned the rear censors before only because I couldn’t see behind me, but not the front. lol. So annoying and you saved me! Yay!! My Hero! Thank you again!!

Glad it helped sir! It seems the sensors don't like getting soaked, after a recent downpour of rain mine started beeping again. All the best 👍

My Volvo V60 (2019) started playing up (the sensors) Washed it, tried WD40 but still playing up like continuous sound or intermittent when nowhere near anything or not going off ata ll or very late when approaching a wall or another vehicle. Volvo main dealer narrowed it down to a spider/web but unfortunatley that did not cure it either. So its back to the dealer again as this is warranty work. But thanks for the video

Awesome video. Wish I’d found it last year when I replaced all my sensors (still didn’t fix it but did stop the continuous beep). Will have another go this weekend to see if I can get working.

Thanks! It's come back on mine after a few months. Definitely caused by water, WD40 seems to help for a while. Hope you get it sorted 👍

This is super helpful, thanks. I think one of my front parking sensors has been damaged by a stone hitting it whilst I’ve been driving as there’s a chip on it, so I need to replace it as I currently get the continuous beep. Garage quoted £400 - sounds like an easy fix to do myself though thanks to your video saving me a heap of cash !

That's good to hear. As DIY jobs go it's quite easy removing the bumper, well on the SE spec it is. Good luck 👍

Actually OBD 2 code reader will NOT display any code. And after a while I showed rear park assist fault on screen but still no code.

Do you have to reset the system after changing the sensor ?
@GeesDrive
@GeesDrive Год назад
Don't think so, unless it's stored a sensor error which I didn't have.
