Picked up 599 last week and park sensor failure - coomon fault? Killed car with battery switch but no luck on re boot Anyone had similar problem ? Thanks
Yep. Mine haven't worked right since I purchased the car. The alarm blares as soon as reversed is engaged, and continues until you hit the console button. I had the car to a dealer and was told one of the front sensors was bad, but to diagnose it the front bumper had to come off at a cost of $1500, and there would be more expense to repair it once it was diagnosed. I decided I could live with the noise.
Many thanks. Mine under warranty but seems to be dodgy as working then failing. Whilst here Ctek charger on normal mode or AGM? Thanks help
This happened to me too- had to get a new sensor. FYI you should be using normal mode on the CTek for the 599.
If it uses the same ones as on the 612, then they are susceptible to water getting into them. This causes the sensor to malfunction and set off the constant tone when reversing. My FF had a issue with one of the front sensors and it was a full bumper off to diagnose and replace. Luckily that was under warranty. Usual quick checks apply such as wax or polish on the sensor.
Thanks for all this - CTEK set to normal - much appreciated Sensors are intermittent but its either working or dashboard message Park Sensor Failure and then no noise or 'illustration' of car and the nodes and a warning sign on computer Sending back for diagnostic but imagine its a faulty sensor or as you mention something crept into one of the actual sensors. Thanks again everyone
