You can always reconnect the trailer to reactivate the cycle.<br \/>\u2013 If you want to take a break and keep the reefer idling, such as when you\u2019re at a truck stop:<br \/>Simply disconnect and reconnect the trailer to reactivate the cycle.<br \/>This will allow you to hear the reefer when you are idle or parked. It can be a relaxing white noise this way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Regarding what the refrigerated trailer sound can be confirmed to work with:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Freight Market: Confirmed to work.<br \/>\u2013 External Contracts: Confirmed to work.<br \/>\u2013 Quick Jobs: Can work, but you need to disconnect and reconnect the trailer to start the cycle.<br \/>\u2013 Ownable Trailers: Requires workaround option. Sound of reefer when stationary and starting up is not applicable.<\/p>\n<p><strong># Owned trailer workaround<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>To use the workaround option properly:<\/strong><br \/>1. Go into the Audio settings.<br \/>2. In the voice navigation menu, select \u201c~ Function \u2013 Force enable reefer sound\u201d.<br \/>3. Click the Preview button.<br \/>4. Reselect your desired voice navigation option OR uncheck the voice navigation.<br \/>5. Drive as usual and the reefer sound will play when you are not stationary.<\/p>\n<p>Note that the reefer beep &amp; startup sound which plays when you\u2019re stationary is not available with the workaround option.<br \/>To stop the reefer sound with the workaround option, detaching the trailer may work. If not, restarting the game is the only way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Authors:<\/strong> Drive Safely<\/p>\n    <a href=\"\/getlink?url=68747470733a2f2f73686172656d6f64732e636f6d2f316b69357a663576726e616f2f5265656665725f747261696c65725f736f756e645f6164646f6e5f2d5f455453322e7363732e68746d6c\" \r\n       target=\"_blank\"\r\n       style=\"            display: inline-flex;            align-items: center;            gap: 10px;            padding: 12px 24px;            border-radius: 6px;            background: var(--nqt-color-primary, #ff6a00);            color: #fff;            text-decoration: none;            font-weight: 600;            font-size: 16px;            border: 2px solid var(--nqt-color-primary, #ff6a00);            transition: all 0.3s ease;            box-shadow: 0 4px 6px rgba(0,0,0,0.1);       \"\r\n       onmouseover=\"this.style.background='#333'; this.style.borderColor='#333'; this.style.transform='translateY(-2px)';\"\r\n       onmouseout=\"this.style.background='var(--nqt-color-primary, #ff6a00)'; this.style.borderColor='var(--nqt-color-primary, #ff6a00)'; this.style.transform='translateY(0)';\"\r\n    >\r\n        <i class=\"fa-solid fa-download\"><\/i>\r\n        <span>DOWNLOAD MODS<\/span>\r\n    <\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW UPDATE: Description info updated to reflect the new Sound Fixes Pack update, including instructions of the workaround to allow the reefer sound to work with owned trailers when driving. # What the mod does Mod activates reefer trailer sounds from the Sound Fixes Pack for the vanilla game trailers in Euro Truck Simulator 2.NOTE [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":249715,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[478],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-249716","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ets2-sounds"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/taimods.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/249716","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/taimods.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/taimods.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/taimods.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/taimods.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=249716"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/taimods.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/249716\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/taimods.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/249715"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/taimods.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=249716"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/taimods.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=249716"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/taimods.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=249716"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
