Just in accident, now there's no "beep" when I lock!
I was recently in an accident where I ran into the back of someone else. Ever since the accident, and even after the repairs were completed, whenever I lock the car with the remote, it will lock the doors and flash the lights, but the confirmation "beep" no longer occurs. I thought initially it was due to the fact that the hood was pushed up in the wreck and the car thought it was still open, but now that it closes properly, it still doesn't work.
I tested the horn and alarm and they both work fine. Anyone have any ideas? The body shop says to take it to the dealer and insurance will cover it if they can prove it is accident related. I was hoping to avoid that trouble.
Any input on what I can do to check/fix it myself would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Tom
