Dash button tone went silent: Why? How can I fix?

Recommended Posts

My car is a 2013 FFH w/ navigation and the full MFT dash setup. I had my car in for warranty service (tranny leak, which is still leaking!) a few weeks ago, and ever since then the buttons on the dash below the MFT/NAV screen no longer make any sound. I think they did an update on the MFT system while they had the car. If I access the same functions (HVAC Temp, fan setting, etc.) via the MFT screen, the tones are still present and functioning.

 

Did I unknowingly do something to cause this? Is it a bug, or Is this all in my imagination and somehow those tones were never actually present (I swear they were there before!)? How can I get those button tones to come back on?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

There is a setting for this I believe under Vehicle Settings in the MFT. Not sure exactly where but I discovered it maybe 2 weeks ago.

Hey Johnboy,

 

Press the 2 gears at the bottom of your screen, followed by SETTINGS, then SYSTEM. Make sure ON is selected next to TOUCH SCREEN BUTTON BEEP. It sounds like you may have OFF selected instead. Let me know either way! :)

Kim, you nailed it. I'd looked there but failed to notice the scroll bar that reveals more options below the bottom of the screen. I know I could not possibly have accidentally browsed to that section and turned that option off. I'm guessing either the dealer's update reset it or the service tech deliberately turned it off. Either way, it's back to normal now. Thanks for your help!

Awesome! I'm glad you were able to figure it out. :)
