My Ride: 2004 535d Msport Auto, Silver, 18" Alloys Engine Remapped - 315 bhp (apparently), Black Badges, Bright white Angels & Fogs, M-Tech Badge Front Grill, rear LCI upgrade
Default

Got an Odd one with my PDC Sensors..

The rear passenger side sensor has never worked (hence my other post about hitting a bollard )

Now the wiered thing is my PDC has never thrown up a warning or a fault saying that the sensor is not working
I checked the sensor last night and found it was clicking when PDC was on (by putting my ear to it) So I am sure the sensor is not faulty. Its just my i-drive never gives any readings from this sensor..
all othr sensors work fine and disply on the screen / give an audiable beep.. but when objects get close to this one, nothing. Nada. Zip
Surely if the cable was loose to the PDC module then it would throw up an error?
any ideas?
Cheers

Sounds like module A81a could use an update / activation / reflash.
