Rear parking sensors 2004 Z4

Post by PeterR » Fri Nov 12, 2021 3:24 pm

Hi

There is no warning sound when I get close to an object. All 4 rear sensors are clicking when I am in reverse as they should. Any ideas what the problem might be?

Thanks

Good shout. Unscrew the trim panel underneath the steering wheel and there is a small speaker to the right hand side - check and make sure your connections are good.

I think there are two wires - one is for the sounds when you get close to an object; the other is for a sound everytime you engage reverse to tell you you’re in reverse (commonly unplugged as they’re annoying AF)
