What are the causes of parking radar failure in Golf 8?
1 Answers
The causes of parking radar failure in Golf 8 include incorrect installation or damage to the probe; foreign objects causing the radar to be unresponsive; and high temperatures. The solutions are to inspect and repair the probe, replacing it if damaged; removing any foreign objects; and moving the car to a shaded area before use, as the parking radar's environmental adaptability issues can affect the sensitivity of the probe and the normal response of the processor under extreme temperatures. The parking radar is also known as the reverse radar, officially called the "reverse collision avoidance radar" or "parking assist device". It is a safety assist device used when parking or reversing a car, consisting of ultrasonic sensors (commonly known as probes), a controller, and a display (or buzzer). The parking radar can inform the driver of surrounding obstacles through sound or a more intuitive display, eliminating the difficulties caused by the driver having to look around when parking, reversing, or starting the vehicle. It also helps the driver overcome blind spots and unclear vision, enhancing driving safety.
