PDC not working
Hello all,
My PDC doesnt work. When I put the gear into 'reverse' i hear the beeps for a couple of seconds and then it goes off. I can reverse and go forward but i dont hear anything. The PDC button flashes in reverse but thats about it.

Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this?

Easy, I think? I had this happen to me too, I took it in and had a diagnosis done on the X, they told me which sensor was bad, I bought the new sensor and installed it myself. Good luck.

Heres a good tip. If you put your ear close to the sensor you can actually hear it working. The one thats quiet has failed.(when pdc is active).Its a snapping sound.Trust me, this works.
