Rear parking sensors.

Hi, just going through everything on the car, rear parking sensors are not work, well the sensors all seem to have the high pitch buzzing but are not working. Any ideas were to start.

I have a Creator 410+ and it does have the function on it to individually test the sensors and the boot module. I found a faulty sensor using it, changed it, everything fixed.If you don't already have one they are worth the investment for all the other codes they can read.

What does the car do when you put it in reverse? Does it do a long beep then go off?

Hi, no it makes no sense and what I thought was buzzing on the sensors is not, I have just bought a BM700 bmw pro Ob11 scanner which apparently will read all the codes, I will keep you posted, where is the sounder in the front ?
