Question Back up sensors not working.

I learned the hard way that my back up sensors are not working. I looked through the manual and only found one fuse in the trunk (#13, 5 amp) that sounded like it might be it, but it is good. Any advise on where else to look or what else to check??
Thanks much,
Grant

Do a search in the threads a couple weeks ago someone posted a similar problem. You should be able to hear 'clicks' to see if they are good and working, refer to that post on specifics. Here it is

Grant,

I've deleted the email address from your post. It's not necessary for forum communications and the internet trolls will soon pick up on it and send you endless spam.

It would be most unusual for all the reverse parking sensors to fail simultaneously. Check the connections to the Reversing Aid Module in the luggage compartment and the speaker under the rear of the centre console.

so in my STR my rear backup sensors work but my fronts dont. I used SDD to check the signals from the sensors and they are all registering correctly. but no front beep beep beep.

As I got further into it I realized I have NO sounds from my car for things like the key in ignition, left lights on, seat belt chime etc. believe all these systems use the same beeper in the Instrument panel and I am worried about trying to get the instrument cluster out for fear of destroying it
