Title: GD Parking Radar giving an alert
Post by: Jyrsa on April 26, 2020, 14:28:58

I've got a 2014 GD Wagon (diesel) with about 170k in it.

In the Finnish winters I've become all too accustomed to the beep of death from the parking radar. Fortunately those have all been fixed by removing the ice from the sensors.

Now I have a new problem: the self-diagnosis in the beginning appears to find an error so I get all the rear sensor symbols blinking and three double peeps like beep beep - beep beep - beep beep.

I was able to search the forums that the beep type probably indicates which sensor is broken, as indicated for the FD here  :link: Reverse beeps (https://i30ownersclub.com/forum/index.php?topic=49454.0) . The GD has four sensors instead of three on the FD. Can anyone shed light on what the error beeps might mean?

Hi and welcome :D

The chart below is fairly standard for a 4-point sensor system.

This is taken from the Hyundai Tucson manual

Awesome, this confirms my suspicion, thanks!
