Hi, I'm curious if anyone has looked into or knows where the speaker for the frunk beep maker is located.
Putting my ear against the fenders, it much louder on the passenger side, so that leads me to believe its in that vicinity.

I need to muffle or delete this sound generator for several reasons.

-it annoying. I use the frunk a lot on the daily, so the 3beeps are just bothersome at this point, especially if you are standing next to the frunk and use the frunk release button up front. The pitch and volume of the sound is just too much!!

-brings a lot of unneeded attention to the truck in public places.

-bothers family and neighbors when opening/closing it late at night because I forgot to get something out of the frunk.

I'm sure I can't be alone in my dislike and annoyment from the frunk noise.
With the pinch sensors that can detect an obstruction, I really have no need for this noise box.

I would love to make a modification to make the truck and its frunk more enjoyable to use.

Would love some help to fix this!

Frunk warning tones bother anyone?

I love my Lightning and hate to pick but…opening the Frunk has three piercing beeps. Wish I could turn them off. I feel like they wake the neighbors. Am I wrong? Anyone know if there is a way to disable it or at least lower the sound?

sounds like duct tape is in your future...

Here is a thread that may be more useful. I'm planning on ordering one as soon as my truck arrives.

Reverse beeping like a forklift

There’s no setting in the Mach-E. I assume it’ll be the same in the Lightning. Yea I looked yesterday, didn't find it. I barely notice it anyway, especially if the windows are up and I'm listening to anything. My V8 cold start is louder anyway.

I'm assuming the frunk speaker is the same one for reverse...

I just listened to mine, and I agree it is on the passenger side. I also think it might be in the frunk hood. It sounded like the beeping was coming from the hood as it lifted up. I also noticed a couple of small wiring harnesses heading that way. Perhaps behind the frunk inner liner?

Better make yet another thread about the same complaint since this one is apparently ruined

It's not.

I don’t see how providing a link to a related thread “ruins” yours. Just trying to be helpful.

I also would love to know where the beeper is for the frunk. Munro is tearing apart a Lightning. I’ll bet they could be helpful in the quest to “ adjust it”

I seem to recall seeing an article on the other forum where some company was making a dongle that could plug into a wiring harness under the hood to address this exact issue. Also affected the slow speed noise maker, iirc.

Unlike the frunk, the slow speed sound is a safety feature that is mandated by law.

Yeah, and why anyone would want to stop that sound is completely beyond my comprehension. It's not even loud...

It's pretty dim, alright. I think the backup noise sounds like a backhoe that backed off a pier into the water. Back on topic, I'm all in for silencing the frunk noise, especially (software) when logic determines that someone is present or it is opening. I imagine that it would be a high hurdle to get a manufacturer to remove the noise when it is closing with the multiple pinch points.
