No clicking at all. I did fit a brand new OEM sensor on the rear to test with no clicking or change. A look in the trunk shows the ecu has all three plugs in place. I have disconnected both the ecumenical and the battery with no change. I keep reading that if one sensor is bad, it kills all the others for diagnosis?

:iagree: - start with the simple things! ;)

Just checking, you did have the PDC button pressed when you did you INPA diag?

Button was pressed with key in position II. I also tried with engine on. The front bumper had paint before I bought the car. It is possible that has NOT been connected again. Where is that connector on the front please?

Connector is front right, in behind the fog lamp. You may be able the remove the right fog lamp and get into it but if not, it's bumper off time...

I'lll find you a picture...

Seems a good place to start looking, given that the bumper was painted prior to you acquiring the car.

My facelift has it right behind the right foglight cover to the right side of the foglight assembly. Just pull the cover and you should be able to see it.

The rear is about 20 inches away from the PDC ECU on the right side where it goes through the body to the bumper area. Look close, it is tucked in under the panel.

Your right from sitting in the driver seat. That's right, you guys drive your cars on the wrong side. :nanana: Better check both sides, I'm not sure how the harness is run on the RHD.

Left and right for cars is always from the perspective of sitting in the drivers seat... so right is in front of the driver for us. :thumbup:

Here's the thread with the pictures - a picture is worth a 1000 words!
