Just use plenty of cold fresh water, don't blast them with a high pressure though. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Some water may have worked its way into one of the sensors, shorting it. Happens to ma quite often when it rains. As the water dries out, the problem may go away on its own. |

So borrow your wife/girl friend's hairdryer and have a session of drying them out. Might be best to do it after dark or inside a garage otherwise the neighbours might think you've gone round the twist trying to dry your car with a hairdryer! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

if you turn thre ign. on to pos2 and put into reverse somewhere quiet, then literally put your ear to each sensor in turn you should hear a slight clicking noise (like a bat!) if there is only one not doing this noise then get it replaced, hope this helps, ichh. they all do that! |
