Parking warning alarm

I have a 2005 R52 mini. Last night it rained and now it is 30 outside. when I back the car up the close parking warning alarm will not shut off. when it is in drive it is ok. Only stays on in reverse. Any ideas?

This. Take it to a self service wash and use the warm water to clean the ice off. then dry with micropolish rag or if your wash is fancy the dryer
