Continuous beep when selecting reverse.

[kenrainforth]

Recently, my 2022 ZS EV has developed this fault each time reverse is selected, even with no obstruction behind or approaching hazard. Any ideas why?

We had a Suzuki that had a faulty reverse sensor that would beep after rain, sometimes for days. No reverse camera so no indication of which one, IIRC some silicon grease cured it.

Thanks for your reply. I suspected something obstructing the reversing camera, but I clean it regularly and the "fault" has only started very recently. Maybe a faulty sensor, I'll keep an eye on it for a few days before seeking dealer advice.

Haven't got a towbar and ball on have you?

I think it's normally a fault indication. Are there no messages coming up?

When mine did the same I found it was the car begging me to wash it So guess its just the sensors needing a wipe

Mine started doing this just this week. I wiped the ultrasonic sensors and that seemed to clear it.

P.S. Did it again this morning. I'll try wiping them again tomorrow, although there has been a lot of rain lately so I don't know if any water has got into one of the sensors.

No, nothing so far.

Thanks, did help to some degree. I'll make sure I keep them clean.

Yes, I think the poor weather recently has not helped. I've cleaned them all round and will keep up the routine.
