How can I disable the reverse beep sound on a Ford Transit?

Ford Transit vehicles do not have a standard accessible option for the reverse signal beep. The reverse lamp circuits installed at the factory are meant only for the factory reverse lamps and cannot handle extra electrical loads. If you want to add aftermarket equipment that needs a reverse signal, you should connect it to the reverse trailer tow circuit, which is protected by a 10-amp fuse. To find out what features your vehicle has and how to access the reverse signal, follow these steps. Note that some vehicles may need a re-flash to activate the reverse circuit. Vehicles made after January 28, 2015, will come with this new programming already installed.

Shift your car into reverse gear, causing the audible beeping to begin. Press the "reset" button located on the central dashboard. Keep it pressed for a moment before letting go.

If you're referring to the annoying warning features, there isn't a permanent fix through the controls or settings... The same goes for the lane assist and faulty collision prevention system. However, there are workarounds. For example, I secured the "parking alert" button to prevent it from turning on when the vehicle starts. Another trick is to attach a trailer wiring "test plug" to the rear connector so the system always believes a trailer is connected, disabling the parking alert.
