How to Enable the Lock Beep on a Mondeo?
2 Answers
In the vehicle's onboard computer settings, select the lock option and click 'Lock On' to enable the lock sound function. Locate the vehicle settings option in the infotainment system, then navigate to the control page. Enable the lock confirmation sound on the control page, and the horn will beep once when locking the car. The car key has a mute button; simply press the mute button while pointing at the car to toggle the lock confirmation sound on or off. If you are unable to set it up in the infotainment system, you can visit a 4S shop and ask a technician to modify the ECU data for the settings.
I remember how to turn on the horn sound for my Mondeo's locking feature, which is quite convenient in noisy places as it provides an audible confirmation when locking the car. My usual method is to sit in the car, power on the electronics without starting the engine, then press the buttons on the right side of the steering wheel to scroll through the dashboard menu to find 'Vehicle Settings.' Inside, there's a 'Remote Locking' option—click into it and you'll see 'Audible Alert.' Turn it on, save, and exit. After closing the door, try locking the car with the remote key; if the horn beeps once, you're all set. I use this feature often because the echo in parking garages makes it easy to identify my car's location, adding a bit of safety and saving me from having to double-check if it's locked. Some older Mondeo models might have slightly different menu placements, so I recommend checking the vehicle manual and taking your time to adjust the settings. If you can't find it, you can always visit a 4S店 for free assistance with the setup—though doing it yourself is straightforward. The key is to familiarize yourself with the button layout to minimize mistakes.
