(Solved) Switching off Front Parking Sensors
One of my front parking sensors has packed up, not going to fix for a while (added to the list of jobs).....but it's blinking annoying because as soon as you stick it in reverse the solid "BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP" noise comes on, but if I switch them off then the rear ones also go off.
So, is there a fuse specifically for the front ones and would taking it out still allow the rear to work?
Also, got my MOT on Friday, would having a long "beeeeeeeeeeeeeep" be a failure?
Cheers

FIXED
So the odd thing is, all of the front sensors make the 'clicking' noise - so I have no way of knowing which one is 'duff'
So thanks to Woody32 - I had a play with the IID tool and sure enough, within the ccf there are several options for parking sensors - I chose the "Reverse" option before uploading and saving the ccf.
After the reset - I started her, stuck it into reverse and no "Beeeeeep" noise, reversed back to a wall and the rears started working
Now I need to find what the issue is....but at least I've got rid of the constant "beeeeeeep" Iggy/Ieuan

The only problem you've got now is figuring out which of the front ones isn't working now that they're all turned off Lee

Will only take a few seconds Toby switch it back on, thanks to the iid tool Iggy/Ieuan
