Lights left on warning...
« on: 29 January 2008, 15:09 »
Is mine the only mk4 that does not have the buzzer sound when the lights are left on and the keys are taken out?  :huh:

I only ask because my mk3 16v had it and the 4mo does'nt.....

it should buzz; do you have problems with your door locks etc as i believe the buzzer works off the door lock modules  :undecided:

Yup, mine buzzes too.

Maybe previous owner got sick of it and killed it.

Do your interiour lights work on the door?

mine used to buzz then stop workin for about a month but couldnt be assed to look at it, but now its an intermitant fault, most of the time it works but some times dont. I av trouble with my door locks so as rhyso said it could be somthin to do with the lock.

It has never buzzed since i have had the car (1 year) and all the doors/boot unlock and lock fine each time....(VW setting)

VAGcom stated that there was a fault with the alarm (intermittent) which prob explaines why just the hazards just flash and no horn beep when activated.....?

I have reset it and turned on horn beep to 1.........but still no change

oh well...

Mine makes the kinda of sound a jet fighter plane pilot would hear if someone had a missile lock on him.

I hope this helps.
