XC60 Parking Assist Failure

I have a 2013 Volvo XC60 diesel with 241192 km. The parking assist system stopped working, displaying 'Parking assistant without function' with an error stored. I've checked the fuses. Could a defective cable or plug connection be the problem?

I had something similar happen with my XC60. It sounds a lot like a faulty connection to one of the proximity sensors, which the parking assist system uses to detect obstacles. Check the wiring and connectors to each sensor. Are all your sensors physically intact?

Thanks for the tip. Do you mean checking the wiring loom all the way to each sensor? I'm trying to figure out if that's something I can diagnose myself, or if it requires a workshop visit. What was the issue with yours?

Inspect the wiring loom leading to each sensor and the connectors. In my case, it was a corroded connector on one of the rear sensors. I couldn't fix it myself, so I had to send my car to the workshop. I would suggest going to the workshop as well.

Appreciate the confirmation. Sounds like I'll check the connections and then probably take it in. I got a quote of around 95€ from the workshop, so it should be fine. Thanks again!
