Horn doesn't chirp on fob double tap

As the title says, my horn no longer chirps when I double tap to lock with the key fob (2018 FosT). The horn works fine, both manually and when I close the door when the fob is outside the car (annoyingly). No other issues exist. I've check the fuse box and all looks well there. Apart from that, I really don't know what to look at next. Any advice here?

Yeah I despise the honk too lol. Like the doors audibly click when locking and the lights flash, why would I need the car to honk at me too?

This may or may not work (listed as a Ford procedure)
You are also able to activate and reactivate the horn beep feature

Here are the steps. Press both the lock and unlock buttons on your remote for two seconds. Watch for the hazard lights to flash three times. Lock the doors and confirm that the horn does not sound.

If you want to reactivate the beep feature: Press and hold both the lock and unlock buttons on the remote for at least two seconds. Watch for the hazard lights to flash once. The horn should honk one time
I might have to do this so I don't honk if I accidentally double press lock

Unlikely, as you would have to hold them both down simultaneously for a few seconds. Also. It could be your horns. The first year I had my car it would do it intermittently. Found out after i blew my motor, that the horns are just garbage. Replaced them with aftermarket ones. Perfect ever since.
