Default Parking Assist went south

It just happened about 2 weeks ago. They usually come on super late anyway..... but this time, it never came on. I had Mrs. MellonC walk around the sensors in the front and in the back. Nothing. No beeps. I checked my settings and they are on.

Is there a reset button somewhere?

Have you looked up the fusebox diagram in your owners manual? I would start there.

Please ignore. It was user error. Mrs. MellonC accidentally turned off the system.

How does one accidentally turn off the parking sensors? I want to be prepared in case my wife does this on her 2015 RX350.

Steering wheel right side menu button, press to change from instrument panel items you want to read to IP items you want to change.
Toggle until you see Park and then press enter.

Thanks for the explanation. Hard to fathom how someone could accidentally turn the sensors off. That is indeed a lot of steps.

I don't question what she did. She even walked around the car to test the sensors with me. She told me she thought it was something else she turned off. I, on the other hand, cannot even recall what I had for breakfast yesterday.......
