My reverse sensors beeping continuously since car washed!

Hi
My car was washed at the weekend. And since then me reverse sensors beep continuously while I reverse and my Bluetooth crackles so loudly that I cannot use it. I'm thinking that the two problems can't be coincidental and that is is some electrical fault due to getting wet.
What can I do? I can't pay for new sensors each time I wash my car. It is so frustrating as surely this should not happen?
All advice welcome!
Than you

Did you try to use a pice of paper just to clean residues at the parking sensor? Sometimes that happens to me, but use to come normal after few minutes when it drys well. Yuri

It may be worth cleaning the parking sensors with a toothbrush. Seriously!

Common issue with FL2, they dry out and will work again

The Bluetooth doesn't seem right though, did you Jetwash the engine bay or something?

This happens to me every time the dealer has it and washes it... Normally have to rub the sensors with a cloth a few times and it all sorts itself out.

Thanks all. Yeah, it was pressure washed/ jet washed. Did what has been advised re sensors but concerned about Bluetooth...I mean is is wShed so thoroughly and at such high speed wondering how getting water under bonnet etc can be avoided?
