SOLVED: Front Far Left Parking Sensor Going Off Constantly

[John Earley]

Anyone have parking sensors go off all the time?

Not all the time.
Only when I am about to hit something
Or weather induced false notifications

Front or rear? Does the display show which?
May be dirty or a faulty sensor.

Yes it displays. Usually front nose and front passenger

Make sure they are clean then check the connections. There is a thread here with similar issue

John, did that work for you, because I'm having a similar issue right now. For the past couple of days, the damn things keep going off every time I come to a stop. I get some variation of this image, with the really annoying alarm sound; at this point, it's just irritating me, and is becoming "the boy who cried wolf".

It started after a big snowfall, and my first thought was to wonder if I wasn't missing a sensor when I'm cleaning them off; as far as I know, there's just the four, right? The two pictured here, and their counterparts on the other side?

If all the sensors are clean and the sensor by the rear view is also clean and still doing that I would check all your connectors to the bumper sensors and make sure there’s no water in the connector and that they are fully seated. Wouldn’t hurt to use some dielectric grease before the reassembly as a additional layer of water repellant and connection aid. Just some tarnish on any connection might be enough to mess it up

I had mine going off constantly after a body shop repainted the front bumper and put the sensors back in upside down.
