Default Parking sensors not working

My freelander2 from 2008 has faulty parking sensors or something similar. Front and rear.
beeps a few seconds and button flashes 6 times when selecting reverse or when pressing the button. I've understood that this is due to faulty sensor or sensors, checked the fuse and it's ok.
anyone knows what is the easiest way to work out witch sensor is broken? Pretty much work to disemble the front and rear bumpers :/ Ain't got any machines that I could connect and check where I live. DIY fixes anyone? Or other ideas?
thankful for answers.

I would try it with two people. One in LR2 with foot on the brake and the SUV in D or R and have the other person go around blocking the sensors one at a time by hand.

Same problem here in Finland. Place in R (Reverse) then come the long beep and the 6 flash on the button. Found out that one morning when the outer temperartura was about minus - 5 deg. the system works ok, but after an 20 min ride to the village it stops to work. One strange thing seems to be that if there is 1 of the 8 sensor broken or the whole system is in mal functions state, the whole system is OFF-line. No sounds from neither 8 trancducer. In Disco 2 and 3 it is possible to disconnect an broken transducer but not i Freelander 2. Not even with an IID tool. Stupid system from Mr. Lucas.

Default i can help with that

Stethoscope, Buy borrow or if you own one, best way put it against each sensor when system is switched on you can hear them working. the one that does not buzz is your broken one
