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!

[@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.

[@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!

[@zeezee8492]

Great tip, I own Vitara 2018 and facing same problem, I visited Suzuki 3S and they asked $ 206 apart of labor charges with one day vehicle to be parked in garage. Really thankful to you man. Zee Zee Pak

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]

[@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

[@spark6270]

This worked on a 22 Black Edition Ridgeline, thanks! Front passenger side sensor stopped working properly after a rainstorm but the driver side worked still. All work as intended now!

[@alberttalbot9534]

Just tried on Astra. Works a treat. Thank you

[@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!

Dear George! Many thanks for your video and your know how, you saved my money (EUR 180,00).

You’re welcome!

[@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.

[@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!

[@GeorgeAusters]

You’re welcome!

[@E1F13RR0]

Im having the same case at my front right sensor. It's so annoying. I'll try with WD40 today.

[@kirkbrooks9447]

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.

[@leemorgan8725]

My reversing sensors stopped working, didn't even know about the switch to turn it on/off, I had caught it by accident and switched it off, thinking how much this will cost to repair, so a great bonus to turn it off and everything worked again. Thank you.

[@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!
