No wonder the system was having problems. That made for a easy fix...

thank you for this thread. i almost just accepted that there was no tone when locking (as there wasnt on my b6 a4 and all the audi owners acted if i was crazy asking for a confirmation beep)

checked the hood switch and it was upside down (the plastic that holds it is cracked in one portion)

flipped it over, tested and now the car beeps when locking. yay

thanks a lot. That was my problem too ❤️
