    why are they rubbish? they are good because if you ever remove them you can still use the wire you were taking the power off whereas if you use another method its a lot more hastle getting the wire back together!!! plus they work a treat

    Must be the parking sensor gremlins.

    I tested mine here on the bench and boy is that buzzer loud. I think I will solder mine then use heatsink and then felt tape.

    It could just be dodgy Chinese manufacturing!

    It is probably one sensor playing up, you could unplug one at a time to fault find. I tested mine on the bench for ages no strange beeps but perhaps they haven't been run it yet.

    I've sorted my problems. You wouldn't believe but changin position of control unit helped . I was trying different things and by a chance had noticed that my control unit doesn't like the place and position. So just changed it and now everything is superb.

    However I've found quite cheap Valeo parking sensors and in future will use them .

    Where the warning triangle space is. There is some place on the bottom, however this wasn't OK. I moved it a little bit and placed verticaly - and it works ... If you need I can take some pictures
