Uh oh! Well, for a few weeks, I've had for the front right, the 'too close' warning as if I was near something, but I wasn't. It would come and go.

A few days ago, the red led of failure come up. Ok, so one of the front sensors has failed I thought. I've replaced rear ones before, so I've been here before.

So plugged in the reader and it doesn't show a specific sensor fault, like it has done in the past.

This is what I have found so far, photos attached.

Any advice welcome, thanks.

I've just been back to the car, cleaned all sensors and reset the codes.

This is interesting, now this is what happens.

Put in reverse, all four red leds for front and back, no beep. Put in drive, front works normally. Put in neutral, all four red leds front and back.

Still nothing specific on the fault code reader which shows a fault again, but nothing specific like it has done before when it was a sensor failure.

60 views (as I type this) and not one reply, so guessing not a common issue.

Anyway, sorted ;)

We have an intermittent issue on the front.
I'm assuming it's a bad connection at the multi plug. That's where I'll start, when I get the chance.

You had mentioned it was sorted. So perhaps an explanation of how it was sorted could help others.
