I’ve got a Cali but when trying to put the roof down the dash says parking sensor failure. I can take straight the deliver and be charged probably a thousand to put right or replace the sensor(s) or control unit to put right, but does anyone have any ideas/experience on identifying either which sensor(s) or if it’s the module that is at fault?

You would probably get a better response if you were to ask this over on Ferrari Chat as there is a wealth of knowledge there.

It's likely to be just one of the sensors, not uncommon I'm told. In fact, since we've had our early California we've had one that doesn't work and we get the warning when lowering the roof. Get in plugged in during the next service and they should be able to pinpoint which sensor is faulty.

Thanks for the thoughts, the failure message stops me from putting the roof down. The Cali needs a service so will get them to assess and then I can decide.

If a battery disconnect/reconnect doesn't work, and you've checked all the connections, I would just replace all the sensors. I can't imagine that Ferrari make their own, so just match up the generic part and buy four of those for the cost of probably one in a yellow horsey box.
