Fuga rain light sensor issue

Bubbling under the gel pad? That's interesting. I hadn't thought about a physical problem. How did that affect the sensor, and how did you figure that out?

Yeah, it's a weird one! The bubbles mess with the sensor's ability to "see" properly. I only noticed when I was cleaning the windshield closely. Honestly, I'd just recommend taking it to a reputable workshop. They'll diagnose it properly, and it's probably a quick fix.

Thanks for the tip about the gel pad. I checked and found some minor blistering. Took it to a shop, and you were right, the rain-light sensor was affected. They replaced the gel pad and recalibrated the sensor, and now everything's working. Cost 62€. Your advice was invaluable!

Whoa, that sounds super frustrating! I have a Fuga too and had almost those exact same issues a while back. Did you happen to check for any weird bubbling under the gel pad on the windshield where the sensor sits? That was my culprit, believe it or not!
