Horn Beeps when I lock the car

Hi Just a quickie upgraded from Disco 2 to disco 3 noticed that when I lock the car on the fob it sounds the horn.
Checked that everything is locked, Just wondering if this is the norm
Thanks in advance STom

no

it indicates a door is ajar, probably the bonnet!
Are there any dash warnings of such things when driving along

The bonnet switch is most likely. The bonnet might well be closed, but perhaps the switch is disconnected or faulty.

The bonnet sensor can be 'shorted' with a large paper clip as a short term fix - I did in my D3 for a short 15 months before fixing!

If it is the bonnet switch a good spray with wd40 or similar was the fix .

Do you have diagnostics ? You could look at the live data for the door switches see which ones are open or closed
