Adam Parking Aid Fault

The system is completely unresponsive. I haven't checked individual connections to the rearview camera or obstacle detection modules yet. Is there a component you'd recommend examining first? And what constitutes 'damage' to a parking sensor? A scratch, or something more substantial?

Completely dead points more towards a central connection issue, I suspect. Without any diagnostic tools, I'd suggest a trusted workshop. It's tricky to diagnose without seeing the car myself, but I would assume that damage to the parking sensors is more than just a scratch, it is something substantial. My local mechanic discovered the problem with the cable there. Hope that helps.

I took my Adam to a local workshop. They found a cable or plug connection fault, and the repair cost 95€. The parking aid is working again!

Interesting. I've had a similar headache with my Adam. Was it completely dead, or just intermittent? Did you check the connections to the rearview camera or any of the obstacle detection modules? Sometimes it's just a loose plug. If you have radar sensors, ensure they are clean and unobstructed. Any sign of damage to the parking sensors themselves?
