New owner - Activate the confirmation beep?

Hey all, I just got an 09 XF SC and it sorta annoys me that there's not audible beep when locking/unlocking. How do I change that? I know I have an alarm because my wife keeps setting it off when she tries to open the door (since there's nothing that confirms it's unlocked).

Check the vehicle security settings on the display unit. My 2012 has something called 2 stage locking which could possibly be the thing to cause a beep ?
I don't think this is what will cause the beep but maybe try it.
I think 2 stage locking enabled means that if you press the lock/unlock once then it only actuates the mechanism for the drivers side door...twice does all doors.
I read on another post who's car wouldn't beep. Seemed like a fault that needed replacement.

They discovered I had a sounder and it had a short,

Thanks. I've been looking at potentially getting a used one on ebay or something. Seems they aren't too terribly expensive, so maybe that's where I'll start.

Instead of replacing unknown parts, try testing with a 12v visual/audio device of some kind. No need to waste money swapping out parts!
