Recently got Passat B7 2.0TDI (CFFB engine) and the rear parking sensor is constantly beeping when gear is put on reverse. Sprayed WD-40 to all sensors (front and rear) last week to clean up and the sensors worked for a week. But the constant beep is back again (not sure if the constant rain in the last 48hrs have to do with it?).
Just got OBDeleven Next Generation (Pro) earlier this week so did the scan, no fault codes. I’m looking for the module for parking sensors but I can’t seem to find it. What module is the parking sensor under and how can I do an output test to identify which sensors are faulty? Thanks and happy motoring!

Update on this: Still no idea how to use OBDeleven to test each sensor. But with continued google search, I learned that you can test each sensors with having tip of the fingernail to each sensor and feel for "clicks" or "vibration." If the sensor clicks or feel a vibration, it means that the sensor is working (or at least detecting an object nearby). All of the rear sensors click (there's far left sensor which is just about doing it). But ALL OF THE FRONT sensors are not doing anything (when put on reverse). Is this why the beep is constant when put in reverse gear? How do I find out the sensor tests on OBDeleven? Thanks and happy motoring!

Sorry dont know your car but the places I would normally use to test electrical items are Output Test and Live data.
Sorry missed your first post
Parking sensors are normally under control unit 10 Parking assistance, with regards to working out if there are faults then you should first run a scan on the car that will tell you all the errors the whole car is reporting.
If you have IOS then I think you only see output test when you are connected to the car
