What causes the parking sensor problem on Citroen C3?
Years 2016-2023

Answer

On Citroen C3 there are various reports concerning problems with the parking sensors, with relative anomaly indication on the on-board computer. In some cases, being probably particularly sensitive, it was enough to clean them accurately to remove any residues which are interpreted as obstacles. Other times, however, one of the sensors has short-circuited, causing the entire parking assistance system to shut down. In this case it is necessary to identify the faulty sensor and replace it.
