Default Lock / Unlock Beep & Flash

After bringing my JK to the dealer I can no longer enable or disable the beep with lock or flash lights with lock. Did my dealer lock those settings for me? If so, does anyone know how to activate it once again? I've used the instructions everyone knows about a million times and nothing. Help me please...

I'm just glad I'm near the end of my warranty so I no longer need the stealership for anything.

Bring it back to the dealer and tell them to correct the problem.

If you don't feel like going back to the dealer, disconnect your battery for approx. 10 min. and then try.

Only the negative.

If you ever have to disconnect both, remember:
Never work on the positive when the negative is still connected.
Disconnect the negative first. Reconnect the negative last.

ok I unhooked the battery for a day and reconnected. When I did i got my seat belt chime back, which I promptly disabled again. I can turn the lights flash on & off with the lock/unlock, but for the life of me I cannot turn off the beep with lock. I know I know, hold lock for 5-10 secs then press panic and release both. Done it a million times and the horn still won't stop beepin. Any ideas? please?? My neighbors think I'm completely nuts beeping my horn all morning in my driveway
