[@kamsmag]

You wouldn’t believe. I sold my Hyundai Tuscon to a dealer yesterday. The car hasn’t been collected yet and still in use. Guess what!? The parking sensors stopped working on the day I sold it!!! Just used your WD-40 trick and they are working perfectly again. Cannot believe what I am seeing! Thanks a lot!

[@ashleywrichardson]

Honestly I've been chasing a supposedly bad rear sensor on my 09 Ford Smax, computer said it was the rear right sensor, removed it and swapped it with the working left rear, same thing. Chased the cabling all the way to the sensor control module and tested everything for continuity... All fine. So i be assumed I'll need a new control module at 225 quid from ford.... Balls. Sat in the bath hunting for other fixes, came across this video. Doused all the sensors in wd40, wiped and doused again.... Put her in reverse.....bugger me it works. I can't believe this fix works. Thank you so very much!

[@edwardcastro1067]

I was very skeptical of this but decided to try it on my 07 Silverado. My wife had washed my truck and I had not driven it for 3 weeks since I was away for work. When I turned it on I found the Service Park Assist message and found my sensors were not working. When I saw the price for each was over $200 I said what the heck, it can't get worse. But to my surprise after spraying all 4 of them with WD40 and turning on my Silverado, the sensors started working and the message no longer came back. Thanks for the trick!!

[@GeorgeAusters]

You’re very welcome Edward, glad to help with your truck!

[@whatusername1234]

I used a portable vacuum (18v Milwaukee) I put the hose on the blower side of the vacuum and used a crevice attachment (this increases the speed of the air) and aimed it at each sensor while varying the angle of directed air and it worked. No direct contact between the vacuum attachment and car panels/bumbers.

[@donnielrheubottom8948]

Been dealing with this issue for several months now on my Buick Lucerne. Thought i was going to have to get new sensors ..This worked for me instantly. Thanks champ 💪🏾

[@adamsjm3]

What a simple trick! It worked on my 2008 Toyota Sequoia instantly. It has been fussy this winter. I tried washing and drying the front sensor, thinking it just got a bit dirty without success and the new sensors are very spendy. I sprayed it liberally with WD40 and the sensor alarm went away immediately. Thanks George.

[@GeorgeAusters]

Glad it helped!

[@TP-Theatre]

Thanks for the valuable tip- Had problems with the camera in the back of the car-- did not work at all- used WD40- after 1 hour it worked perfectly again. 6 euros for WD40- we saved at least 500 euros on your tip.

[@GeorgeAusters]

You’re welcome!

[@esjaybe43]

Spot on. 2014 ford Cmax with "Parking Aid malfunction. Service required" message. Spayed the rear bumper sensors with WD40 some crud also came out. But back to normal working. Great fix. Thanks for posting this video. How many drivers have put their car into the Ford service centre without trying this hack?

[@GeorgeAusters]

Glad to help! Yep dealers will be replacing the sensors at your expense before trying this trick!

[@davidellis4303]

Just tried it on my Volvo S60 and it worked on a sensor that was cutting in before anything was there, brilliant.

[@igorprecep3420]

Thank you, this really works, tested on Peugeot 508 SW 2015! Haven't drove our car for 6, 7 days. Car was outside under the car cover and past 6, 7 days we had all kidns of weather condition: snow, rain, light winds, up to -8 Celsius over the night, few sunny days.... Yesterday decided to take out cover from the car, it was below 0 Celsius and because of rain, snow, sun and cold, there was a lot of snow on the top od car cover and car cover was like a cardboard paper almost completely glued to the car. We had to use a lot of water temperature around 25 Celsius (never use hot water, glass could easily brake if it's really cold outside!) to "soften" the car cover. Finally we did it, car cover was removed. Some half an hour later tried to start the car, it started without a problem but on the main screen car gave us a worning that something is in front of car but in front of the car there was nothing at all. At first we thought some of the parking sensors on the front of the car got faulty. We took a short drive and every single time we stopped car gave us a working that something is in front of the car really close, it was so anyoing. Did some research and found your video on KZbin so decided to give it a chance. My WD40 bottle was almost empty so I had to use something else: cheap W5 lubrication spray from LIDL, not as good as WD40 but I had nothing to loose. I've sprayed all parking sensors in front and on the back of the car two times each, it was still cold outside, left it to soak for a half an hour. Started the car and: voila, no more parking sensors warning! Wife did a few circles around the car, 50cm to 20cm from each parking sensor, to test if all car sensors are working propperly and they did, problem solved! Guess some amount of ice formed around one of few front parking sensors, they were "thinking" there is a close obstacle in front of the car. All in all problem solved, no more parking warnings yesterday or today, hope it will stay that way. You've earned yourself one more sub, thanky you!

[@dannySG61]

Tried and proven worked! Thanks loads! One of my sensors have been crazy beeping when there is nothing near it for a while now. Now it's working as it should. Thanks again!

Did this on my challenger, just went and washed my car and my sensors stopped working , went and bought the WD-40 and it worked.

[@GeorgeAusters]

Glad to help!

[@gursimransekhon688]

WD 40 is lubricant...?

[@AaronLorch91]

@@gursimransekhon688 that's a misconceptions actually. If you truly need a good lubricant, WD-40 is not it. It frees up squeaky hinges and rusty threads, etc, but that's not as much from lubrication as it is Water Displacement (product stands for Water Displacement - 40th Formula). Draws moisture out, thus helping prevent/fix rust or in this case, clear up a sensitive electronic sensor.

[@bryceharr4276]

Why does this happen after a car wash? This just happened to me as well I’m on my way to buy wd-40

My Hyundai ix20 sensors were on permanently (no beeping). Was going to take it to the main dealer and expect a huge bill as usual. Saw your video and hey presto, worked like a charm. Thank you for the video.

[@GeorgeAusters]

Main dealer would have charged you to replace all the sensors plus diagnostics

Was about to bring my Audi A4 to garage to get parking sensor problem looked at when I came across this useful video so I gave the WD40 a go and did all my sensors. All working and a complete success. Thanks so much for this quick fix. 👍

Hi bro,did it work for you? I am yet to try this.hope this will work, to fix this at the service center will cost an arm and leg.

[@BMJJ119]

Thanks for this information. I was reversing yesterday (23.12.22), watching the camera in the car. Unfortunately my sensors wasn't working, I was relying on them (beeping) there was no beeping. I hit a car bumper. Thank God nothing serious happened, not even a scratch. The lady was very very furious 😡I told her sorry a million times.. Told me she was going to ring the police. She took photos of my car and I did the same. I'll certainly use the WD40 to clean my sensors. Thank you V much.

Thank you very much. My Vauxhall Mokka was giving "Parking Assist Temporarily Unavailable" and giving a loud Bong sound every time I started the car and every time I came to a halt. It was driving me nuts. I sprayed WD40 into the sensors but it did not fix the issue straight away. However the next morning it was working perfectly.

Yeah can take a while to drive any water out👍🏻

Hey there! Hitting you up from the US, I just did this on my wife's 2012 Ford Focus and it worked like champ! I used Tool Box Buddy spray fluid rather than WD-40 but they're all pretty similar. Sprayed it down, cleaned it up and waited a while to let it work. Tried it a couple of hours later and the problem was fixed. On the Focus the sensor made a continuous beeping sound rather than the repetitive chirp and now it functions like new. Thanks for the post, I'm sure the shop would've charged me at least $200 for that.

Would a contact spray work just as well, or does it have to be WD40 exactly?

I find this error occurs after heavy rain. If I clean out, use blower and WD40, then wait a few days when warm weather back, fault disappears. Has worked last 4-5 times. Not to say this will work in the future as wear and tear occurs. When I use the blower, always amazed how much water there are in the sensor gaps. Anyhow, give it try. Can’t hurt.
