As I recall, those with the Backup Warning will have small circles (as in stamped into) in 3 or 4 positions on the rear bumper when viewed from behind. I think they are the sensors. I don't have it so I can't help any more than that.

The beeper for my back up control is under the trim piece behind arm rest/center console at rear seats. It just pulls off.

Damn, now I got to look in the trash can for that little speaker that I couldn't figure out what it was for.

The height of irony would be inadvertently backing into the trash can crushing the speaker inside.
