How to Turn on or Change the Lock Sound on Your Tesla

In a move that adds a dash of personality to the Tesla driving experience, the 2023 Holiday update introduced a quirky yet delightful feature: customizable lock sounds. Gone are the days of generic beeps; now, Tesla owners can choose from an array of fun options, including a screaming goat, quacking duck, or some of the classic jingles. But why stop there? With Tesla's latest update, you have the freedom to add your own lock sound, opening the door to endless possibilities for personalization and surprise.

 How to Personalize the Default Lock Sound On Your Tesla

Personalizing your lock sound is at your fingertips, it's very simple! Here's how:

1. Click on the ToyBox icon.
2. Click on the Boombox option.
3. Then, click on Lock Sound.
4. From this dropdown menu, you will be able to select from a range of lock sounds that are already available on your Tesla by default.

So, how exactly do you add your own sound?

It's simpler than you might think. Once you've selected the perfect lock sound, make sure the file is in the format .wav and ensure that the file is named "LockChime.wav. Transfer it to the root level of an USB drive (not in any folder). The File should not be larger than 1MB. Please note that even though you can only have one lock sound on the USB drive at a time, the potential for creativity knows no bounds.

However, there's a slight hitch—Tesla's USB connectivity options are limited when it comes to data transfer. In most recent models, the only USB port equipped for data transfer is the one designated for Sentry Mode storage, typically located in the glovebox. Sacrificing this port for a custom lock sound seems impractical, doesn't it?

Jowua have the solution to your connectivity woes. With our USB Ports, extending Tesla's data transfer capabilities is a breeze. Simply plug your USB drive containing your chosen lock sound into one port and the Sentry Mode USB into the dedicated sentry mode one, and you're all set to impress your relatives with your personalized touch.

After transferring your chosen lock sound to your USB drive, the next step is to seamlessly integrate it into your Tesla. Here's how:

1. Plug the USB drive to your car and navigate to the Toybox feature.
2. Select Boombox from the menu options.
3. Within Boombox, locate the Lock Sound setting.
4. Use the drop down menu to select "USB" as the source for your lock chime.

Remember, the key to success lies in ensuring your audio files is in the .wav format and named "LockChime.wav" Once you've completed these steps, sit back, and enjoy the uniqueness of your Tesla. Whether you opt for a humorous tone to brighten someone's day or a badass vibe to turn heads, the choice is yours. Embrace the freedom to customize and make your Tesla truly your own.
