e60 PDC problem .. code# 9E3B
One of the sensor, far left on passenger side, went bad several months ago and had replaced.
PDC had been working fine since then.
I recently got PDC failure mssg again and I checked sensor and no front/rear sensor is working.
It is an intermittent failure and in most times it doesn't work.
I am still assuming that it is a bad contact or wiring issue.
I also disconnected and checked PDC module and Power supply and it seemed to O.K.
Scanner is throwing 9E3B, power supply distance sensors line fault.
After a goole search(many are with my case, same code # but no success story),
I took front bumper off to see if there’s any line broken but the lines are visually O.K.
I did it first because the front bumper was taken off for painting 2 month before I got this PDC failure.
Rear suspension strut was also taken off a month ago.
Any chance damaging or touching PDC related line while doing suspension job?
Does anybody has a success story with 9E3B?

so you checked the pdc module under the spare in the trunk? no evidence of water there? you check to see if there is a fuse for the pdc? sorry, not sure what else to suggest.

Also swapped 5A PDC fuse with the other one..
All were o.k….
I suspected cable break for the front sensor and plugged new cable set but still got the same code 9E3B.
I am planning on taking rear bumper out and see if there’s cable break there…
Any member with success story with 9E3B is welcome to chime in

Switch on PDC before measurement.
