I would just like the option of switching what the sound emitted in reverse is, like a ring tone, personally I think a valley girl proclaiming "OMG Becky! Look at her Butt!" would work perfectly!

I specifically enjoy annoying my anti-EV neighbor with this sound. Can you turn it up? ?
I know you are joking, but yes, you can. All you need is an amplifier with speaker level inputs and a 6 ohm resistor to prevent the car from throwing an error.

This is 100% correct.

Today we were out walking the dogs and didn't notice an old Tundra pickup truck coming up behind us. We didn't hear anything. In fact, when he pulled into his driveway next to us, we barely heard his engine. The tire noise was the most obvious.

So why do the government bureaucrats think BEVs need fake noise? Because they are a bunch of idiots.
I would watch out for vehicles backing up if I was you. You are pressing your luck.

I am usually listening to loud music through my noise cancelling earbuds while I watch cat videos on my phone, so my walk through the parking lot is stress free.

Thanks for this. Worked great. Took me 30 mins or so from start to buttoned up. The longest part for me was to find the PACM module that was in the IPC to flip the bit.
Where did you find the PACM module? i can't find it in Configuration and Programming

Look for 720-09-02... inside ICP. That's where you will find it. Just did it last night, works perfect.

thank you for the info, so when I go into the IPC this is what my screen looks like, not like the one in the above thread. I don’t see the anything to change to ‘0’

After completing these steps, it seems this also disabled the pedestrian warning when moving forward? Is that expected?

EDIT: See from other comments the pedestrian alert is also disabled by this change. Not sure I want to do that so may reverse this change. Will see how people react in parking lots... With that said, might be helpful to update the OP with info that this this disables reverse beeping AND pedestrian UFO noise.

No one cares. They are sleeping. They hate you for other reasons.
Oh that's funny I got a guy it has a Ford truck with a loud exhaust and we know when he leaves every morning at 5 AM because it makes both of us up and he's a block away. We don't hate him, but that annoying back up sound is enough to make me wanna jump out of the car and yell at someone.

Which vehicles have construction equipment sounds? MY 21 Job 1 here and my car doesn’t have any construction equipment sounds, just the regular pedestrian alert tones.

All MMEs in existence have the backup beeping sound that plays through a speaker under the car. There is no law requiring EVs to have backup beeps.
