Mercedes C Klasse parking assist issue

Parking assist malfunction on a 2016 Mercedes C Klasse hybrid with 63698 km The dash throws an error and a scan confirms a parking aid fault Symptoms are a dead parking assistant, no rearview camera, and offline radar sensors Has anyone seen this before Are there common failure points I should target first

I had a similar problem with my Volvo a while ago Was the rearview camera also affected in your case With my Volvo the rearview camera was working, but the parking assist malfunctioned

The rearview camera is dead When you say similar, do you mean the parking assist was completely non-functional, throwing errors, but the camera still worked What was the root cause in your case I'm trying to narrow down if I'm chasing the same issue

Yes, exactly The parking assist was completely non-functional, but the camera worked fine The official workshop determined that one of the sensors was defective I was advised that the whole system shuts down as a safety measure if one sensor is not working properly I would recommend visiting the workshop, so they can read out the error memory and make a diagnosis

I was hoping to avoid the workshop, but it seems like a deeper dive is necessary After a thorough scan with a Mercedes-specific diagnostic tool, it pinpointed a faulty radar sensor I replaced it, cleared the error codes, and everything is back online Thanks again for sharing your experience it helped confirm I wasn't barking up the wrong tree
