Press Download on any sound. It saves as LockChime.wav, the exact name your Tesla looks for.
Put LockChime.wav at the top level of a USB drive, not inside any folder. Format the drive exFAT, FAT32, ext3 or ext4 (not NTFS).
Plug the drive into a front data port. On many cars built since late 2021 the console ports only charge, so use the glovebox port.
In the car, open Toybox > Boombox, turn on Lock Sound and choose USB.

Copy LockChime.wav to the top level of a USB drive, plug it into a front data port, then open Toybox > Boombox, turn on Lock Sound and choose USB. The file must be a WAV under 5 seconds and under 1 MB. Unlike wraps, lock chimes still load by USB only. FrunkLab's lock sound library has nearly 400 ready-made chimes, plus an AI generator that turns a text description into a Tesla-ready WAV.
Lock chime guideYes. Each lock sound is a plain WAV audio file, not an app, installer, or archive, so there is nothing to run. Every file is checked against Tesla's limits (WAV, 44.1 kHz, 16-bit, under 5 seconds, under 1 MB) and downloads already named LockChime.wav. You can preview any sound before downloading, and you do not need an account.
Browse the lock soundsAlmost always one of six things: the file is not named exactly LockChime.wav, it sits inside a folder instead of the top level of the USB drive, it is longer than 5 seconds or bigger than 1 MB, it is not a real WAV (an MP3 renamed to .wav will not play), the drive is formatted NTFS instead of exFAT, FAT32, ext3 or ext4, or the drive is in a port that only charges. On many cars built since late 2021 the console ports only charge, so use the glovebox port. Also check the hardware: Lock Sound plays through the external Pedestrian Warning System speaker, which most Teslas built since late 2019 have. With the drive in, open Toybox > Boombox, turn on Lock Sound and choose USB. Every download from FrunkLab already has the right name, length, size, and format.
Step-by-step lock chime guideA WAV file named LockChime.wav, 5 seconds or shorter and under 1 MB. It goes at the top level of a USB drive, not inside any folder, and the drive must be exFAT, FAT32, ext3 or ext4 (not NTFS). Plug the drive into a front data port, then open Toybox > Boombox, turn on Lock Sound and choose USB. Every sound in FrunkLab's library and every AI-generated chime already meets these limits.
Lock chime install guideYes. The AI lock chime generator turns a short description into a Tesla-ready WAV under 5 seconds and under 1MB. Type what you want to hear (a two-note futuristic chime, a robot voice saying "doors locked", an old cash register), pick a length, and download the file as LockChime.wav. Every generated chime is also saved to your My Chimes library.
Open the lock chime generatorMostly, yes. Melody chimes (a synthesized jingle) and voice chimes (it speaks the words you put in quotes) are free on every account, 5 a day. Sound-effect chimes come from a separate monthly allowance (2 a month), because that engine costs more to run. Browsing and downloading the ready-made sounds in the library is free without limit.
See pricingEach sound has its own page with a preview and a free download, already named LockChime.wav and checked against Tesla's limits.
