What are the causes of automatic parking function failure?
3 Answers
Automatic parking function failure is generally caused by sensor signal distortion or electronic brake motor failure. The solutions for automatic parking function failure are as follows: Try closing the door again: Sometimes the automatic parking failure warning may be due to the door not being properly closed, and simply closing the door again can resolve the issue. Check if the automatic parking button is stuck: You can try pressing the button firmly a couple of times to resolve the sticking problem. This method is usually effective and convenient. ABS failure: If the above two methods do not resolve the issue, it may be due to a faulty ABS pump. This type of failure cannot be handled on your own, and the vehicle should be sent to a professional repair facility for inspection and repair.
I have encountered an automatic parking failure while driving. Common causes include sensor issues—such as wheel speed sensors covered in dust or water, preventing signal transmission; bugs in the control computer software requiring updates or upgrades; a stuck or aging actuator motor; loose circuit connections or short circuits causing overheating; a dead car battery preventing system startup; or user errors like improper slope settings. These can all lead to function interruptions. I recommend regularly checking sensor cleanliness, performing software updates, and maintaining the battery in good condition. Safety comes first when driving—if a failure occurs, pull over to inspect or visit a repair shop.
With years of driving experience, most automatic parking failures stem from component aging or insufficient maintenance. Wheel speed sensors malfunction when covered in mud, especially on rough rural roads; electronic modules may malfunction due to overheating; wiring connectors corrode or loosen; actuators may jam and require lubrication; the system may not respond when the battery is low. Issues are more likely to occur on rainy days due to moisture. I once experienced a parking failure after rain, but fortunately, nothing serious happened. Don’t forget to clean the sensor areas during car washes, and it’s recommended to perform an annual electronic system checkup to prevent unexpected issues.
