Default Parking sensor issue

Hi all, hope someone can shed some light on this for me!!

My parking sensors have developed an issue, standard long beep then the camera turns on and then they all turn off and the button starts flashing... no beeps to a say how close to objects etc,

Scanned the car and came back with rear left sensor this sensor was the one which wasn’t clicking also so made sense that I replaced the sensor,...

after replacing the sensor and resetting codes, nothing changed! I also tried the new sensor in a different position to ensure new sensor wasn’t fault and it’s fine...

would it be a wiring fault?
would the control panel need replacing?
would it just need a hard reset on the control panel?

any suggestions would be amazingly helpful - hoping to tackle this on Saturday

thanks all!

Tim

No special hints or tips other than use standard automotive electrics diagnostic techniques and systematically eliminate things that it could be, till you get to what it actually is.

Where you’re at, it’s either a wiring or module fault.
