Default Parking assist sensors not working

All my sensors have stopped working. Is there a fix I can do myself for this issue or does it need to go to Lexus and at what cost? By the way not mechanically inclined by I am pretty handy.
I have a 2006 - 430LS

First, check to make sure you did not accidentally turn off the Park Assist function.



If that is not the problem, the next thing to check is the 7.5A fuse called "GAUGE" in the driver-side fuse box.

Default Parking sensors

OMG, what an idiot I am but.......that's why I love this site. You always solve my problems. Never thought to check the Parking assist button and sure enough it was off. Probably happened the last time I had the car detailed.
A million thanks.

The other fun one is the mirrors only tip downward (in reverse) when the mirror selection switch is pushed to either left or right.

Would anyone know why this would happen?


I've wiped the sensors on the front but that obviously hasn't helped. Guess its time to dig a little deeper and actually inspect the actual sensor module.
