    Usually, when the car refuses to lock it is due to one or more of the following reasons:

    1. A Smart fob is left in the car.
    2. A door or the hatch is open.
    3. The Prius was left in some operating mode besides IG-OFF.

    Don't tell me the key fob was in his wife's purse?

    How do I enable that beep so that when I try to lock my car and a door or the hatch is not fully shut, the car beeps. The more noises my car makes, the better!!!!Yesterday I went to lock my door on my 2008 Toyota Prius and it would not lock. I almost had a heart attack. It wasn't until I moved my car for my dad to get his car out of the garage and I saw the "door Opened" light illuminated on my dashboard that I realized a door was opened. How do I make it beep if a door is opened when I try to lock it and a door is partially or fully opened?

    The "can't lock" beep is standard on most Gen II Prius. What package do you have? Does it have SKS?
