You can use the remote key to activate the locking horn sound. Just press the lock button and the horn will beep, or press it briefly for only the lights to flash without the horn sound. Press and hold both the lock and unlock buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds, and the lights will flash to restore the settings. Click on the screen lock sound notification and uncheck the option to play sound when locking and unlocking the screen.

I've been researching some small features in cars recently and found that activating the lock sound on a 2014 Jetta is quite easy. Just press and hold the unlock button on the remote key for three seconds without releasing, wait for the car lights to flash once, then let go—this triggers a hidden setting. If it doesn't work, it might be because this option wasn't enabled at the factory, and you'll need a diagnostic tool. I also tried adjusting it in the central control menu by finding the sound settings and toggling the alert tone, but the menu is buried deep in older models, so it takes some exploration. The actual lock sound confirms that the doors are securely locked, preventing theft due to forgotten locks, especially useful at night. Don’t test it randomly to avoid messing up the settings, and it’s best to regularly maintain the remote .

As a long-time Sagitar owner, activating the lock confirmation sound on the 2014 model requires some patience. Try opening the door, sitting in the driver's seat, closing the door, and holding the lock button for a few seconds while watching for the sound icon on the dashboard. If there's no response, you'll likely need to program it using a diagnostic tool like VCDS. I previously encountered a horn malfunction issue which turned out to be overwritten settings - reprogramming fixed it. The lock sound provides crucial peace of mind, especially in noisy parking lots where immediate confirmation matters. Regular electrical system checks help prevent failures.
