Default Confirmation beep/chirp on double lock

Hi,

I previously owned a US spec 2009 XKR PE and it did not generate a confirmation beep/chirp on double lock. I took it to the dealer and they told me that the sounder was bad and replaced the part. I now own a US spec 2010 XKR and it also does not beep/chirp on a double lock. Does anyone know if the XKR MY2010+ utilizes the sounder or horn for the confirmation on double lock? Does this need to be turned on in the software?

-Tom

The sounder in my 2009 XKR Portfolio went bad, too, and was replaced under warranty. It appears to be a common problem. I suspect it's the same in newer X150 models but don't know for sure.

I get a deeper tone with the double click on my 12 vert.

On my 2012, I get no beep on first lock either by key or pressing the button on the handle. Should it beep, or can it be turned on? It does beep if I double tap the button or fob.

I do and have always had the double-lock chirp on my 2010 XKR. I use it all the time. SUPPOSEDLY, it allows the electronics to go to sleep faster than the (I think) 15 minutes that it takes when not double-locked.
