Driver side front park assist out of control.

HONDABBQ · January 12, 2020

Bought in late October., truck (19 SLT) has been flawless. Few recalls still need to be updated, but, as per a few threads here I’m waiting. Got about 4 k on it.

I washed the truck the other day, 3rd time washing it., and the front drivers park assist is wonky. I’m in central Canada so it’s a bit cold.

When im in stopped traffic, it goes off, when traffic starts to move it goes off. None of the other front sensors are doing it, just the one.

I checked to to see if there was anything on it to cause it to give false readings, but it’s clean.

Anyone have this happen? Dud it clear up after a while?

Not willing to take it into the dealership just yet to avoid the recall issues.

Different but similar problem, one rear sensor intermittently goes off when in reverse, happened again after car wash, front sensors do not activate at all unless I go to cameras on my screen to activate, side detection also unavailable, seems like all this started after getting all 10 of the latest software factory updates installed at my dealer.....going to have to go back to dealer.....will post after, we shall see

Sounds strange, but if it is cold out and wet, try to heat the sensors with a portable hair dryer to see if they clear. I've had them go off due to the cold and wet and I will run to the dealer to troubleshoot. By the time they pull it out after writing up the ticket, it is working like it should. There also could be water in the connections, so a little electric-grease will do wonders to keep the electric flowing while keeping the moisture out.

Are you in a cold climate? The ice storm we got has been causing terrible issues with mine. Water freezing and melting and freezing then melting. For some reason it’s twice the passenger side interior sensor. Must be heat from the engine making ice melt down on it and then refreezing. You’re not in a freezing climate that is irrelevant.

Temps got a little warmer the past 2 days. its -10c here. Driving to work this morning it looks to have cleared itself up. I knew I should have waited for another couple of days before posting.

Im assuming it has some kind of issue with the washing of the truck then right into the cold .25c weather. Now that its wormed up a bit its back to normal.

Thanks for the replies guys.

I have seen similar issue with random triggers and nothing to trigger it. It was always the front sensors. My dealer pulled a code that the video processing module was faulty. Once I had it replaced, and I thought all was well, It reared it's ugly head again a few weeks later. This time the it was both the front and back sensors going off as I was backing out of a parking stall. Again there was nothing close enough in front of me and nothing behind me to set it off.

The latest incident was after an update on the infotainment system.....coincidence?
