Solution

1. Preparation

Gather necessary tools: fuse pullers, multimeter, and replacement fuse.
Ensure the vehicle is parked on a flat surface and turned off.

2. Locate the Fuse Box

Open the driver's side door and locate the fuse box cover under the dashboard.
Remove the cover by pressing the tabs or screws, if applicable.

3. Identify and Remove the Parking Sensor Fuse

Refer to the fuse diagram on the inside of the fuse box cover or the owner's manual.
Locate the parking sensor fuse and carefully pull it out using fuse pullers.

4. Inspect the Fuse

Visually check the fuse for any breakage or damage.
Use a multimeter set to the continuity setting to test the fuse. Place probes on both ends of the fuse; a reading of zero indicates a blown fuse.

5. Replace the Fuse

If the fuse is blown, replace it with a new fuse of the same amperage (usually 10A or as specified in the manual).
Reinsert the fuse back into its slot until it clicks securely.

6. Reassemble and Test

Replace the fuse box cover.
Start the vehicle and engage reverse to check if the parking sensors are functioning properly.
