Default Bumper sensors out, but still loud

I don't think my sensors work anymore, I mean - I've gotten close and they haven't signaled me anything. When I put the gear in reverse, the signal comes on real loud, sometimes it doesn't at all.

I got only one brand new sensor left, and i'm guessing it is expensive to buy the others. For now, I'd like to disable the sound it makes when I go into reverse, is there any way to do this? It gets annoying hearing that thing, or even toning the sound down would be helpful.

Thanks guys!

I cannot help you with the location of the speaker for the park assist, but Thermo or another member can help you with that. What I can tell you is that every park assist sensor will give off a clicking sound if they are working correctly. If they do not send off the clicking, you will have to replace them

here are the sensors

Fezz, if you just want to eliminate the tone, open the trunk of your car and lay down inside the trunk. With your back to the floor of the trunk, look at the underside of the rear shelf. You should see 2 large openings near the center of the shelf. Stick your hands up in there and you should feel a box up there. On the box will be a connector. Disconnect this connector and that will kill the tone you are talking about.
