2012 Mazda CX-9 door lock multiple chirps. Please help!

Whenever I lock the doors whether via remote are on door handle the doors lock however vehicle chirps exactly 20 times. I verified that all the doors are closed properly. Anyone know what can be causing that to happen. Figure it must mean something.
Thanks,
Ed.

Two times I noticed that was when ignition switch was not turned completely off, or the other FOB was still inside the vehicle somewhere. Just an idea..

True, but not 20 times.

Ah.. i guess i never counted them.. i just know it chirps when that happens. Also, before you shut it off, you might check your "door open" light to see if theres a bad sensor..

Thanks for your replies and your advise helped. It turned out to be that I had left the 2nd fob in the car. Easy fix! Interesting how the manual doesn't make mention of this!
It's great to have your support. I just picked it up for my wife and she's loving it. Wish the mpg's were better though!

Thanks,
Ed.

Found it in owner's manual
