Front parking sensor issue

So I get an intermittent park pilot error that shuts down the whole camera/sensors setup, usually at the worst possible time in a busy car park. Carista shows a ‘signal implausible’ error on the front right sensor. Given it’s intermittent, I’m thinking it might just be a dodgy connector an am reasoning it’ll either be at the plug for the sensor, or where the sensor wiring harness connects to the rest of the car. The sensor connector looks like it might be a fiddle, but I understand it’s possible to get at without taking the front bumper off. Can someone tell me where the harness connects to the rest of the car? Is that accessible or does the front have to come off the car?
 
Give them a really good squirt with wd40 and a wipe first.
I had the same code but it sorted mine.
It's worth a go before taking things apart anyway.

Once the wiring leaves the sensors it all converges in a 6 pin plug that lives inside the front right wheelarch, you can access it easily while removing the front bumper but if you dont want to remove the front bumper you can put the van on full left lock then undo & bend back the front of the drivers wheelarch liner and get at it from there, you could try going though the foglight access hatch in the archliner first but think its a bit restricted if you do but a much easier option.
The wiring from that 6 pin plug goes direct to the PDC control module that is mounted with the BCM just above and to the right of the pedals
