Turning Off alarm beep

juanccgg · 07-29-2006, 03:08 PM

I have a 325i (E90) with the alarm installed. I want to turn off the alarm beep and just have the lights flash. In the menu I only have the options to have lights or to turn off the options, but it doesn't work. The alarm always beeps.
Is it possible to turn off the beeps?

do you have i-Drive or not?
if you have i-Drive you go to vehicle settings, door locks, confirmation, audible confirm. on/off for lock, and unlock.
if you dont have i-Drive i am sure the dealer has to do it.

Are you on drugs? The audible lock confirmation is the best part of the alarm aside from the actually alarm function.

It tells everyone that someone important is getting into their car right now.

It is non-idrive.

HAHA, are you on drugs......funny

Anyways, you can do that through your BC stalk, and then go to your profile setting and look for lock confirmation. There should be more detail step by step from the manual.
