Just bought a 2012 Equinox LS - very excited. I'm enjoying it's features. When I was at the lot, the salesman went through some configurations with me. We chose to not have the horn beep when I clicked unlock. Now, though, I want to change that - and some other settings. However, when I go to the Configure menu and click "Vehicle Settings" the screen says "not available in this ignition mode".
What does that mean and how do I get into my Vehicle Settings?
Did that and then turned panel on and it still had the same message. I tried with the key in and screen on. Key out and screen on. Key out and screen off. Nothing seems to give me an option to change Vehicle Settings.

take the key out and try going into settings without it.
Update. Just tried on mine a little while ago. Its two clicks[/color] to the right.
Tried accessing without key, got the same "not available in this ignition mode". Tried one click, same error. Tried two clicks to right and the screen came up.
Thanks JCarm - That did it. Bizarre that it can only be done in THAT ignition setting. At any rate, I went in to change a particular setting: Lock Car and lights AND horn flash. However, it says it's already in that mode. But - the horn does not go off at all when I lock the car. And I clicked it off and then on again (the setting) and still only lights flash.
So - if anyone out there has an idea about that, I'm all ears. Again - thanks JCarm!
1 click on remote lock button locks the car (no beep/honk sound, but doors do lock). 2 clicks on the remote lock button makes the car beep/honk and you can keep pressing it to lock and it will beep/honk on every additional click of the button.
Yup! That was it. Thanks a bunch! The double-click is probably mentioned in the manual. However, the ignition mode is definitely not mentioned. What a shame. Thanks again!
