Front parking sensor fail
Hi, the front parking sensors have failed on our 110. A solid red line on the screen for the front of the car, no beeping or screen indication if you are near something. I’ve removed the battery for 20mins to see if that would reset it, but no luck.

Unless anyone knows another trick or anything to check, it’s off to the dealer. Issue is it’s 6 weeks until they have a slot with a loan car !

I've had the same when there were snow or ice on the front sensors. Even blocking one of the front sensors causes the red line to appear to the whole front. After clearing the sensors it works again. So any chance this could be causing the issue for you too? 22MY Defender 110 P400e SE w/ Off-Road Pack, Driver Assist Pack, Cold Climate Pack, Comfort & Convenience Pack + ClearSight Rear-View Mirror & 11.4" Infotainment Screen

Thanks, no it’s quite mild in the UK at the moment. I’ve also washed the car multiple times since it started.

Hi, I have the same problem. Were you able to have this resolved? If so, how?

The O/P hasn't been active on the forum since 2022 so we may never know if they sorted it.

l would just take it back to the dealer. Unless someone else has anything to suggest.

I get a disconcerting 'ghost' in the sensors every now and then - where it states there's something immediately next to the vehicle, but there isn't.

Fortunately it allows me to bowl on through the mystery object without applying the emergency collision braking.

Once I've driven through the 'ghost', the system sorts itself out for a while.

I seem to have lost all but centre rear parking sensors. Thinking it may have been similar time to yours. I have tried disconnecting battery to reset but no luck. Too many not working to be actual sensor I would have thought. 90S D250 fuji and loving it.

Booked in next week, of course dealer won’t recognise even the slightest Chance that an update has caused this despite numerous reports Whistle

I know this question won't help you guys with the problem. Can you select which OTA updates to accept or do they automatically download by default?

I have the same. All but rear parking sensors have stopped working, accompanied by red line all round (except rear) on Pivi screen.

This seemed occur after the most recent Pivi update.

No faults read on GAP tool. Not cured by cleaning sensors & Pivi reset.

I think there's a new Home Screen tile available since Pivi update. A wading tile, with a soft button to press to turn off parking sensors - pretty useful for off road. Pressing the soft button on this new tile appears to turn off parking sensors, but does not activate wading mode (do this in the normal way instead.). I've been trying this tile out - I wonder if there's a software glitch that allow you to turn off the parking sensors, but NOT back on again? Does this tally with anyone else's experience?

And from anyone who had this fault, has it yet been repaired & how?

Thanks. L663 D300 SE MY22.

So mine has been assessed no fault found so they are ordering new sensors and will take bumper off and check wiring.

Not very detailed analysis but it’s in warranty so not as bothered as if I had to pay, may question the coincidence and other reports a little more if I did!
