[UK] Hidden front parking sensors options?
Hello
I recently bought a 2015 Tourer and I've been looking for an option to keep the front parking sensors enabled at all times since I'm used to it from my previous car. On a cx-3 forum, they mentioned re-programming the sensors to turn on automatically at low speeds (pdf here https://www.cx3forum.com/forum/163746-p ... 881?page=2)
The steps I followed are:
- Keep sensor button down and start engine
- Keep holding and a beep will be heard (takes about 5 seconds)
- Carry on holding and another beep will be heard
- The sensor button's orange light is now flashing.
I didn't proceed beyond this step since I wasn't 100% sure what the flashing light meant, but I assume it's some some sort of special mode. The screen does not display the front and rear parking sensors as you'd expect when the sensors are enabled.
Has anyone played around with it successfully, or know what this all means?

No, I never managed to get it working. After speaking to the dealer, I was informed my model didn't support auto-switching of parking sensors. You can try the steps in the PDF here: https://www.cx3forum.com/forum/16374...cs/4881?page=2 and see if it works for you.
