Default What are all the beeps?

Factory alarm system.

Sometimes I unlock my car and it beeps a couple times, sometimes it beeps more.

What do the various beeps mean?

Sure you aren't pushing unlock twice?

Yeah. I don't press unlock at all. I just put my hand in the handle.

If you put your hand on the front handle, first beep indicates front doors unlocked, second beep means rear doors unlocked.

Usually 1 beep is normal feedback. 2 beeps or ding or etc mean something is wrong.

Just today my car king and it display key battery is low. I didn't even know it can tell. LOL

Sometimes when I lock the car it beeps once, sometimes it beeps more times... I've never really figured out why that is.

I've had two beeps sometimes when I locked my car....come to think of it, maybe it tells me the rear and front doors were locked.....I sometimes unlock the rear doors to get stuff out. Other times just one beep, when I'm riding solo and lock the car....

I wonder if there is some kind of beep for low remote battery.....?
