Disconnect the cables on the battery. Touch the positive and negative cables together. Wait 5 min. Then reconnect the cables. Then try everything again.

The only way this could possibly void your warranty regarding this issue would be if you had to splice into any wires to connect these items. Even then though, you would've had to splice an incorrect wire, the one that controls the "beeping" when locking.

To get back to your problem, as far as I know the only sound you are able to control through the fob is the horn sounding when you lock the car using the fob (you can turn this on or off by holding one of the buttons). I am unaware of any way to manually disable the beeping upon locking/unlocking the car via the door handle button.

If I were you, I'd take it to the dealership for warranty work. None of the aftermarket items you've installed should void your warranty.

hey one last question , where does the electronic beeping come from , is it a horn or something else i looked for a fuse and the only fuse i found was for horn

[adidas2go]

no i tried it and no luck

Sorry about that. Thats usually the fixes little electrical problems Try plugging in the stock mirror and see if things go back to normal. Then track the problem from there.

I'm not 100% sure for the, but on most vehicles the "beeping" or "chime" comes from a speaker in the cabin somewhere. I assume the fuse for the "beep" would be included with other miscellaneous interior lighting/electrical.

In other words, I doubt the beep has it's own fuse so if a fuse blew, you'd see more things than this inoperable (but it doesn't hurt to check your fuses anyway!).

[nickwillhite]

thanks for the input im goin to check fuses then i guess i will head to the dealer

did you ever get this checked out? im wondering cuz im currently having basically the same problem. no horn or beep. my lights flash when i lock it and do nothing when i unlock it.

nvm i figured it out

[jw]

I've have the same issue.

What did you figure out?

[michaelthepsycho]

The horn still sounds when you lock the doors but i like the electronic beep when you press the button on the handle.

Huh? My car never beeped... Not the honking, which I know of.

[brokendan]

heh hold down the lock button and unlock button at the same time for 2 seconds. i had tried this but apparently i wasnt doing it right. but yea. try tht. i tried it again and it worked.
