bassik, have you done any alterations or mods to your car as yet?
That is a little unusual.

Good thing its still under warrenty.

But check the fuse before you take it to the dealer.

Thanks a lot guys, its was indeed the fuse which was burnt out. So i swapped it with one of the replacement fuses that come with the car and everything is working fine now. Btw, the owners manual had very easy and detailed intructions where to find the fuses for each component and how to replace them.

Make sure you visit your dealer if not just to get a replacement fuse then to have them check things out as obviously there's no reason you should have blown a fuse and both the check and fuse are warranty issues...

I got the same problem -- taking my car in today ...does this have anything to do with the Shock Sensor being installed?

Has anyone else had this happen as well?

Tested mine yesterday because of this thread. But I had already heard the horn each time I double clicked the lock button on the FOB.
