Default pdc failure on e60 530xi

Hey guys. Recently I got a pdc failure happen to my car. I found the faulty sensor which was one in the front and I took it out to see if there is any problem. Then i switch it with the sensor next to it and it seem that the fault sensor is still ticking. So i assume that the sensor is fine.Then i took out my spare tire and look at the pdc control module and there was no water either. I tried to touch the wire that connect to the sensor under the front bumper and it seem fine, no cut or anything. So does anybody know what is happening? And btw, where can i get a pdc control module which is already programmed for the e60? Thanks in advance if anyone can help

My whole sensor thing malfunctioned. And i seem to not figure out what happen. Eventhough i tried. So there is no problem with the sensor itself, the control unit seem fine, the wire seem fine. Can you suggest anything else i can check for?
