Rear Parking Sensors
« on: 02 August 2011, 00:02:55 »
Can anyone give me any idea where the rear parking module is and does it have it's own fuse??

It had them fitted but I've noticed they are not working!

No idea on estate.

As power is from reverse light, I would expect an inline fuse on the loom to the unit...

On saloon the ecu is mounted on pillar on near side rear behind spare wheel.

Hope it is a fuse. More likely previous owner disconnected at ecu as they do go faulty giving a continuous annoying tone and problems can be difficult to trace.

On an estate the control module is located behind the the panel on the left hand side of the boot. Open the panel that allows access to the NSR light cluster, stick your hand in and feel towards the front of the car. If you don't have Bose you can also get to it from the larger drop down panel. 

The module itself is a black box approx 150x100x50mm and does have a blade type fuse (10amp iirc) protecting it. The fuse is on the loom feeding the module and is a few inches away from the module.

If the fuse is ok, check to make sure your reversing lights are working as the system takes it's power from the reversing light circuit.
