Parking Assist stopped working and has a flashing light on the switch.
VCDS has an error "1080340 - Parking Aid Speaker".

I got to the front speaker / buzzer, it is working (buzzes with system warning when car turned on) and the connector looks good.
I am trying to find the rear buzzer (shown in workshop manual on right). Note mine is RHD car.? I have peeled back trim on RHS and LHS but can't see it anywhere?
Workshop manual shows this sketch, but I can't see these connectors it sits on anywhere?:

I believe it is still on RHS in the RHD car,

1. does anyone now how to find it?

2. Next option is to check connector to the parking assist module, anyone know how to find the module? Apparently t is below the instrument panel. Hoping to get some hints on how to access it, before I pull that part of the car apart also (and nervous around airbag panels!)

Thanks

Its there in the RHS rear under the panel
Not much bigger than a 50 cent piece.
You have to pull the whole RHS panel out to get at it.
A **** of a job for $70 part genuine or much cheaper aftermarket.
Done it myself and parking system will work again straight away.
There is also one in the front behind the glovebox.
