A Genuine, Documented Cause Worth Checking First: The Tailgate Hinge Wiring — Seat Ibiza Rear Bumper
A genuine, documented pattern worth knowing if your reverse camera, reversing lights, and parking sensors all stop working together (rather than one at a time): this combination points strongly toward a wiring fault at the tailgate hinge itself, where the flexible loom section flexes every single time the boot opens and closes. Over years of use, wires inside this section can fatigue and cut, and because all three functions often share wiring routed through this same flex point, they can fail together in a way that looks like a major electrical fault but actually traces back to this one specific, repairable spot. Opening the tailgate and inspecting the rubber wiring conduit near the hinges for a visible cut or fray is worth doing before assuming a more serious fault.
Seat Ibiza Rear Bumper: More Than Just a Plastic Panel
It's rarely a plain plastic panel on the Seat Ibiza: the rear bumper usually integrates parking sensors and a reversing camera housing, sometimes exhaust trim too, so a seemingly minor kerb scrape can end up needing more than a simple like-for-like swap.

Seat Ibiza Rear Bumper: What It Does
Beyond absorbing minor impacts, the rear bumper on higher trims of the Ibiza often houses parking sensors, a reversing camera, and sometimes integrated exhaust finishers. A bumper that looks compatible can still be missing the correct cutouts or wiring provisions for your specific trim's equipment.
