Hi all,

Where would the fuse for the rear parking sensor system hang out?

in fact does anyone have a handy fuse locater diagram?

I have a constant beep in reverse since the other day when it was particularly cold and icy

I want to check connections and fuses too, but Audi seem to keep fuse information secret :mad:

i have the interactive Audi workshop manuals and browsing them makes me fully understand why they can't fix anything. the manuals consist of 20 gigs of useless info.. All I can find on the parking sensors is where they are (i can see that without a diagram) and how the plugs unplug. (diagram not required there either.

Any help appreciated

cheers

I thought the constant tone was for a faulty sensor.....

looks like either some moisture in the sensors froze or it was a dodgy connection.

All i did was stick my hand in behind the bumper and decided that it was too tricky on a snowy drive. i think I found 1 sensor connection and I wiggled that..

Bingo working.

Thanks anyway for advice. There must be a test for these sensors.. like resistance or capacitance.

cheers

Hi Guys. My sensors do same thing when frozen over - never had to get in behind bumper - just clear from outside! Also think all the fuses detailed in the hand book! This weather getting past a joke!:beerchug:
