Anyone else but me experiencing that the high beam assitant warns that there is something wrong with the sensor field? It happens to me more or less each morning and evening going to and back from work, and it's really annoying. Especially since I get one big BOING and three error messages each time...

I am having the same problem with the high beam assistant and the error sound something like this"High beam assistant not active,field sensor obstructed, please turn on and off high beam manually) ... It`s really annoying because it reapets to beep really loud and to display the error on the screen .... I think that this error may occur while the front end of the car is very dirty , but for now i am not sure .... i want at least to stop the software from disturbing my attention every 5 minutes with the same error

Isn't the high beam assistant a camera in the back of the rear view mirror? Have you checked that the lens is clean, and the inside/outside of the windscreen where it would "look" ?

My car is due for a program update on Friday and one of the things on my list is the High beam assistant. I'll be back with a post in the weekend how it ended. This morning it was really annoying; 5 "boings" in just a couple of minutes...

... it appears I'm the bad guy; my digital token I need to pass the Oresundsbridge with in order to reduce the fare has been placed too near the sensor field - that's what causes the malfunction. Oh well, that was an easy fix!

I`m glad you figured it out... i still encounter the problem , but only when the car is very dirty so it`s not that bad in my case, ,i just assume that it`s warning me to go get my car cleaned
