"Service engine soon" usually only lights up if there is a problem that would affect emissions; things like misfiring plugs/injectors, malfunctioning O2 sensors, etc. I don't know how a parking sensor would do this. Could you have inadvertently left some other cable disconnected or forgot a ground strap or something? Just a guess.
