Check that the parking distance control system is switched on using status ET003
"Parking distance control function" (parking distance control switch warning light
goes out). If the status displays “suspended” or “deactivated”, restart the system by
pressing for 1 or 3 seconds, consult the interpretation of status ET003 “Parking
distance control function”.
Check that the parking distance control configuration is correct for the vehicle on
which it is fitted (LC005 Vehicle identification). If necessary, reconfigure the
computer using command CF005 Vehicle identification.
Check, when the vehicle is close to an obstacle (between 20 and 150 cm), that the
distance evaluated corresponds to the distance displayed by the diagnostic tool
(PR001 to PR004).
If the distance reading does not match or the distance parameters stay at 255 cm,
contact your Techline.
Check that the buzzer volume is not at a zero setting LC001 Buzzer volume.
If the configured volume is ZERO or DEACTIVATED, reconfigure the computer using
command CF001 Buzzer volume. Select the volume required by the customer.
Switch off the ignition, and disconnect the parking distance control computer 16-track
connector to check the insulation and continuity and ensure the absence of
interference resistance on the following connections:
Laguna II ph2, Espace IV ph2, Espace IV ph1 (1 connector), Vel-Satis ph2,

PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL FUNCTION
NOTESSpecial note: If the parking distance control system is suspended or deactivated, the
parking distance control switch indicator light comes on.
This status indicates whether the parking distance control system is on or off:
ET003: READY This means that, when reversing, the parking distance control detects obstacles
and the buzzer sounds (the parking distance control switch indicator light goes
out).
ET003:
DETECTINGThis information is displayed when in reverse gear and indicates that the parking
distance control has detected an obstacle.
ET003:
SUSPENDEDThis means the parking distance control system is switched off (no detection
possible). The suspension is temporary because the parking distance control
system will come back on after the ignition is switched off and on. To suspend or
reactivate the system manually, briefly press (1 second) the parking distance
control switch.
ET003:
DEACTIVATEDThis means the parking distance control system is switched off (no detection
possible). This suspension is permanent (switching the + after ignition off and on
again will not reactivate the system). To deactivate or reactivate the system
manually, press and hold (3 seconds) the parking distance control switch.
If the status is not as specified, check for an earth on track A2 of the parking distance control switch. Repair if
necessary.
With the ignition off, disconnect the parking distance control switch to check the insulation (against the earth
and + 12 V), continuity and absence of interference resistance in the following connection:
Laguna II ph2, Espace IV ph2, Vel-Satis ph2, Mégane II, Scénic II, Espace IV ph1 (1 connector),
Vel-Satis ph1 (1 connector), Clio III, Modus ph2:

If the connection just checked is OK (no open or short circuit), and there is an earth on track A2 of the switch but
the fault is still present, check the switch operation with an ohmmeter.
Switch not pressed: insulation between track A2 and B1.
Switch pressed: continuity between track A2 and B1.
Replace the parking distance control switch if it fails to function as specified.
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.

Only apply the status interpretation procedure if the parking distance control switch
position is not consistent with the information supplied by status ("Press detected" or

NOTESSpecial notes:
Before searching for a fault with these parameters, make sure no fault is present or
stored. If there is a fault, apply the interpretation for the fault detected by the
diagnostic tool.
Note:
The ultrasonic sensors are very fragile. Therefore, when removing the rear bumper, be
careful not to scratch them.
An obstacle which is further than 150 cm away cannot be detected, the parameter
value is 255 in this case. For an obstacle which is between 20 and 150 cm away, the
parameter value is the distance to the obstacle.
For an obstacle which is closer than 20 cm away, the value of the parameters is 0.
Using the diagnostic tool configuration reading screen (repair mode menu), check that the parking distance
control system is configured correctly for the vehicle type to which it is fitted (LC005 Vehicle identification).
If necessary, reconfigure the computer using command CF005 Vehicle identification.
Check, when the vehicle is close to an obstacle (between 20 and 150 cm), that the distance evaluated corresponds
to the distance displayed by the diagnostic tool (PR001 to PR004).
If the distance is incorrect or if the distance parameters remain at 255, make sure nothing is interfering with the
reading (sticker, mud, snow etc. on the rear bumper).
If the distances displayed by the sensors seem incorrect or if 255 is displayed continuously, check the condition of
the sensor(s). There must be no scratches on the detection component (outer metal section) of the sensors.
Replace the defective sensor.
If the fault is still present, apply the fault finding procedure to the sensor whose distance parameter is incorrect
(even if the diagnostic tool does not report a fault).
AFTER REPAIRRepeat the conformity check from the start.
