Parking sensor problem

The sensors go off sometimes ..... when I started the car this morning and put in reverse the sensor beeps and lights go red. So I put in park and turn car off then back on and everything is fine ? This has happened a handful of times. Has anyone else had this experience ?

that’s the first thing i did the first time that happened and I always wipe them down and they don’t have any scratches or anything On them either. I’m going to look at them again in the morning I gotta leak coming from my windshield fluid as well I gotta fix so I was going to open it up and look at it tomorrow and I’ll double check all the sensors. Weird thing is it usually happens in the morning when it’s colder than usual. I’m not sure if that has anything to do with it just seems like a common thing when it does happen

I can 99.9 percent say it's gonna be your battery, I had the same issue with my car, replaced the battery and it's fine.

i was thinking that as well I haven’t changed it since I’ve bought it and being in Florida it’s probably about time. Was also thinking the aux battery as well
