skidder Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Evening, I left my car at one of those Gatwick parking places where they pick up you're car and take it to a storage area while I was on holiday.Cheap but personally I wouldn't do it again. Anyway when they dropped my car back to me at gatwick the air bag light was flashing.So I drove home hacked off and then did the airbag reset ignition palava.This worked fine.The light then came back on yesterday(6 weeks later) and I reset it again.All seemed OK until I started reversing and the rear sensors dont beep anymore! Any ideas would be great. Cheers, Chris Quote
scubapics Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 I doubt that the two are related. The reversing sensors are normally powered from the reversing light circuit and the air bag fault is normally due to the wiring under the seat. They should be unrelated circuits and quite a distance apart from each other. Quote
skidder Posted December 10, 2012 Author Posted December 10, 2012 Thanks for the reply.Now the beep doesn't work when I put it into reverse although the rear warning light works. Any ideas anyone? Cheers, Chris Quote
Ebized Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 You are a very brave man to hand over your keys at one of those parking places having heard some of the stories at what goes on there, just hope in your case your car was not abused - 'fraid that is all I can say Quote
ewan221 Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Mine has a small switch that can turn the sensors off, check that ? Quote

Anyone know the best thing to do?I guess take it to a specialist. thanks chris Quote
