There are several threads on the "old" site dealing with all the problems I had with the parking sensors ..... all after an insurance repair that involved them removing the rear bumper .... it was just after that, and some heavy rain that the problems started. Eventually, and after much faffing and learning about the test sequence, which occurs when the 430 ohm resistor thing is removed ...



that the problem was found to be a damaged loom, the guess being that when they removed the bumper they "stretched" the loom, water got in and shorted out 3 of the sensors and the control box .... replacement loom and 2 sensors from an OOF member , control box and 2 sensors from AndyC .. and it all works again ....

mine just suddenly gave continous tone one day over 2 years ago and has been disconnected since - one of the 2 wiring looms is believed to be problem - evg else checked as working

So didnt it bother you that you've got a feature, but why aint it working? An yep like i said out the blue got the tone!!
BTW - noticed your avatar, that is a VERY GOOD replacement option!! 

It does not bother me now - it did at first but could not be bothered with a job where work disproportionate to problem to be solved. I may have a go but the Omega is doing little miles these days.

Phaeton has sensors front and rear and a reversing camera with options for in line (adjacent to kerb) and in bay parking!!!
