CrosslandX Radar Sensor Error

Hi, I have a 2021 Vauxhall CrosslandX with a gasoline engine and 126123 km on the clock. I'm getting a radar sensor error. The speedometer displays an error message, there's an error stored in the error memory, and it seems to be causing other systems to malfunction. The speedometer also has a warning light on. Could a dirty sensor really cause all this?

Indeed, a malfunctioning radar sensor can cascade into multiple system failures. Has the vehicle been exposed to any recent conditions that might obstruct the sensor, such as heavy mud or ice?

I haven't noticed anything extreme, but it has been quite wet and muddy recently. Would that be enough to cause such a complete failure? Is there a way to test this?

External factors can certainly impair sensor functionality. It is advisable to consult with a qualified technician to verify the sensor's operation and perform necessary calibration procedures.

Thanks for the advice. I took it to a garage, and cleaning the sensor, followed by radar calibration, did the trick. Total cost was 45€. Appreciate the help!
