Are they all active all the time? Had the car in reverse and started to put my hand over each sensor, some came on and some didn't.

I guess you are referring to those traditional ultrasound based "visible" sensors? All rear sensors work simultaneously but those are only active at reverse or neutral. Front sensors are always active (at low speed).
You must have made some kind of a mistake with your test, if one sensor did not work, you would get the whole rear (front) disabled and two red "leds" shown for each side at the distance display.

I don't see how I can screw up, I have park brakes on, pop in reverse and covered each sensor the ones that didn't work I tried recovering in various position. I'll try again tomorrow again.
