Disable horn when leaving vehicle

[DesertRated]

Really enjoying my new Rubi X. One feature that’s annoying is the horn sounding 3 times if you leave the Jeep with it running. Is it possible to disable this feature?

If you search, been a few threads on this. Only way to disable it seems to be with a Tazer device.

Even if you get a Tazer it will go back to default it seems. I've had mine a month and it started again. I'm going to redo it tomorrow.

did you do a reset and 2 sleep cycles after you changed it?

*edit: I've had my taser for almost a year, only time I ever lost changes was after I Unmarried for dealer service. I put it back in and did not run the save function ( reset and 2 sleep cycles)

Someday I'm going to wire the horn up to a relay off the seat belt switch or shifter sensor or something. So annoying.

Might not even be possible to interrupt the power to the horn with the canbus system, haven't looked. I expect someday somebody clever enough will come up with some sort of plug and play module solution. Or at least I hope.

Put a NC relay in the power line feeding the horn. Use a Aux switch to trigger (open) the relay and turn off the horn. Program the switch to work only when the engine is running and to not remember the button state so that it resets to normal horn function each time the truck is started.

Yup…You need a Tazer to disable it.

I’ve had that happen myself before…although, I could always blame it on something else that caused it to reset.

I’ve had it for 6 months now. I’ve had it out a couple times (unmarry, reboot, sleep cycles, etc) for dealership visits. I’ve written myself ‘better’ notes for doing those cycles (cuz the users guide is horrible). You gotta be patient and can’t rush the process.

Just recently…. I had it out for a dealership visit and was pleasantly surprised… when I installed the tazer back in (marry, reboot, sleep cycles), the Kill3honk setting that was set prior was still intact….. so, it remembered that setting.

The Kill3honk setting is a LIVE function (engine on) and you shouldn’t need to do the sleep cycles for this adjustment.

Everytime I’ve had it out…. I plug it into the computer to get updates. It always tells me “You’re up to date” - I run the updates anyway.

Anyone know if JSCAN can disable it?

Every once in a while somebody claims it does but I've never found an option for it. They do update the software sometimes though, it's possible something's been added. But given it's a live function of the tazer I'm guessing it's not a modifiable saved option in the BCM

My 2020 doesn’t do this. My Colorado does and it’s annoying.

Our Ford F150 does it and it always annoyed me. Imagine my surprise when I got the Gladiator and it does it too but takes it to higher annoying level. I got in the habit of leaving the keys inside if I need to leave the vehicle running with the Ford so now I do it with the Jeep as well. For security, the Ford has a keypad so it can be locked/unlocked with the keys inside with the vehicle running. With the Jeep I think I could use another key or FOB to do the same but I haven’t checked yet.

as I said the only time I have had it "forget settings" was after re marry and I didn't reboot or sleep I think it was 2 months in to using Tazer, Next got out of the truck to get mail honk was back

I have done the whole process now every time without issue since

There does not appear to be any setting JScan could change. Even the Tazer doesn't change any settings - it's a "live" feature on that device.

Taser for sure, mine will loose its mind evey so offten and does the honk thing. I just go to the audio screen #(8) enter the Tazer menu and it reads "updating" then all is back to normal...
