Tech question on a Prius, yes, way off topic.

I just bought a 12 PriusC for my wife (trying to offset my wonderful 15mpg). Does anyone know where the damned door lock/unlock beeper is under the hood? I checked on a bunch of the Prius forums and I got nothing. All I want to do is find the little bastard and stuff a foamie earplug it like I did on my Tacoma. Thanks, and flame away.

 

There's a combination of button and brake pressing that takes you to secret menu that can disable the beep function, also turn the seat belt chime off, make the locks stop auto locking, etc. An option not offered yet on the taco. Dealerships can do it with their fancy scan tool too, but generally won't.

 

Is it that annoying? I like my viper alarm chirp i can see the lights flash and hear the alarm and know if i hit the wrong button.

 

Not jacking the thread but damn Toyota, could you make the Prius any more confusing. Here's Matt from TheSmokingTire doing a one take on a "modded Prius" trying to turn traction control off... http://youtu.be/fPrIYKk3bAo
