Why does my LH park assist not work?

The fuse powering the system is fuse 8 under the hood, which is also used for the LH tail light circuit. All fuses have testing OK, reversing lights and tail lights work.

There’s not a lot of play to check the loom but 2 of them were “flattened” slightly so I taped up the loom and taped over the metal bodywork as well, I would have used heat shrink but the sensor plugs prevented slipping the heat shrink over the loom.

Is there any way to re-set PARKTRONIC system?

It can still be coaxed to work, and will still correctly show how close objects are whilst parking, but is there any way to re-set the system to clear whatever has caused the initial fault? Checked all the sensors (front & rear) and there are no visible signs of damage which would explain the presence of this error.
