Also check each sensor to see if its working by putting your finger on it.
(Be careful as the car is in reverse!)

When mine started that, I told the Mrs to get out !
Seriously, these are the bane of many 120 owners, front and rear. At least you can turn the rears off permanently, the front only temporary until next time you start it.
Tony's suggestion may be the answer, but the rear or front bumper has to come off to gain access and seperate the sensors, some like me have cut their throats and given up, others have fitted more reliable aftermarket ones.
Although Toyota fit them, they are not a Toyota part, so no spares, as some have found when going to their local dealership.
A quick check is as per Karl's suggestion, which will tell you if any or all are functioning or not, before looking elsewhere
Also the dedicated wiring for them is like cotton, so could be a break or bad connection anywhere.
