Rear parking sensors

Pressing the p button switches front and back off in park position as the bloody thing beeps like mad when opening the rear hatch.
Here is the illusive p button

I've only got a grainy photo to go on but that switch looks like its blank on my van - does that mean my van doesn't have rear park parking sensors (I thought they were standard on Trendline/Highline) or is it only there if you went for the optional front sensors as well?

Just re-read some of the earlier posts in this thread and think I might be worrying about nothing, i.e suggestion that you do indeed only have the P button if you have the front sensors as well - correct?

 

[StudleyGlass]

sounds correct to me @Dave Harris

Yeah that's right I have rear pdc and no P button

@StudleyGlass @Pauly Thanks for the confirmation - after a 7 month wait the excitement is building ahead of getting to see my van for real in a couple of weeks and I am spending too long on the forum finding new things I may need to worry about!!

Wait till you pick it up, every other driver is out to get you then !!!!!

The P button on mine switches the front sensors on/off and also turns the rears off after you've engaged reverse hope this helps.

Same on mine too @Roca also mute button is on the dash display when reversing if need to turn it off, display is quite well thought out lets you minimise of maximise the sensor display while still showing the camera picture

It's even worse when you put new wheels on, every kerb is at least 2 foot tall !!!!!

I have just taken delivery of my 2018 T6 Caravelle. It was in the workshop for 6 months while it got modified to my wheelchair needs. It has an undrfloor cassette hoist and a factory fitted auto opening rear door. If I am behind the van the sensors stop the door opening. Thats ok, but when I put my trailer onto the tow bar (also factory fitted) the sensors still wont let the door open. I was under the impression that with factory tow bar and wiring the sensors would be deactivated. Any thought?
