5 beeps each time I turn the key on/off/ignition

Talk about the 406's electrical system, what wires do what, how to add extra functionality, etc.

5 beeps each time I turn the key on/off/ignition

Post by nagydani »

For about a day, I can hear 5 beeps each time I turn the key to any position i.e. ignition, stopping the engine or even just turning on the electronics. There is no message on the display or even a blinking symbol on behind the steering wheel. Do you have any idea what this can be?

Hi.

If there is no warning..on the mfd..
Id try a b.s.i reset..

If I rember correctly..a 406 shouid only beep if..the handbrake is left on..lights left
On ..with key in ignition etc..

Or keys left in ignition with door-open.

Someone else might know more..its a long while since I've owned one..

It turned out that it had something to do with the seat/mirror memory. I remembered that after setting the memory there was a glitch in the process and started to move the mirrors twice. This morning I did a reset with a seat/mirror memory, and now the beeping is gone.

Thanks for the previous answer!!

I thought the seat ecu was too stupid to do anything like that :shock: Well done for finding it, I did a forum search for the beeps and came up with someone with the same problem a few years back, looks like they never sussed it, or at least didn't let us know what it was.
