2008 Matrix - Locking Issue

Hey All,

I have a 2008 Toyota Matrix XR, and I want it to make a sound when I lock it using the keyfob. Either the horn or something should make a beep or chime type sound. I can't seem to get mine to do that...does anyone have any suggestions on getting this feature to work?

Thanks for any insight anyone can provide!

Push once for silent lock, twice for horn beep.

I wish that were the case. That is what I am looking to make happen, and I know that there must be some sort of programming code to get there. With my current set up, when I hit the lock button multiple times, just the corner lights flash and no sound is made other than the actuating of the locks.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

No it doesn't. I have an aftermarket Autostart alarm/remote starter but I thought a few years back when I had the OEM fob that it woked like that. Maybe I'm thinking of another car. Sorry to have mislead you.

ps....can't get one by mista!
