Please help

just drove the car and got a loud continuous beep, so stopped the car, turned off ignition and re started noise came back after a few minutes driving

Not like lights noise/beep as thats intermittent and no where near as loud as this alam/beep

It is Louder than the parking sensors and like I say it is just a continours high pitch noise no warning lights on dash???

HELP?

 

Is the battery an original? Can you test the battery voltage while the car is off and running.

 

Not a clue

just had a full service done and played with the stereo but checking the voltage of the battery No

louder than the reversing sensors but no warning lights on dash? not intermittent

 

Do you have a voltmeter?

 

a what?

no sorry I dont . Can I ask what would send this scream down my ear?

 

I could drive the car then video it when it kicks in?

only started today?

 

Had to drive for about 20 mins before the noise kicked in

i said it goes off by taking the key out.................not this time LOL

 

Do you have a coupe or a roadster? If its a roadster, could it be a warning that your top is not latched? A bad sensor for the top that fails a few minutes into the drive?

Also, your glove box is installed on the wrong side of your car

 

dont think they did a roadster SRT-6 in RHD ?

its the Coupe

thanks for responding John

did you not see my signature

 

My old c230 had a similar problem, something was beeping/buzzing really loud on random times. Sound went down by time at the end, it was just noticeable if i open the hood....and almost disappeared few weeks later...I think it was the siren for the alarm. I think there is another battery in the alarm siren and it needs to be replaced after so many years...I dont know if it is your scenerio also..good luck.

 

In your posted video there is a light ON in your instrument cluster. Is this the bulb out indicator?

 

I also noticed that the gear display showed D, like it thought you were still in Drive for some reason.

To me it sounds like the reverse sensor system is screwing up. The double beep when you first turn the key on, is that a normal thing on your car? It definitely is not a factory installed beeping emitter that is making that noise. Try disabling the reverse sensor system and see if the noise goes away.

 

Hi

I had been out to video the noise and it never happened so returned home, as i got 10 meters from the drive it went off so quickly did the video hence why is in drive

the double bleeb is because i am turning on and off the ignition

no hazard lights associate with this alarm

nothing like the sound of reversing alarms

Yes it is because LED,s have been fitted all around including LED day lights

 

Hi,

is the bleep the same sound you get when you open the door with headlights on, or is the sound (frequency) different?
Does the bleep come from the instrument cluster?
Did the bleep ever come on with headlights/lights off?

Hi

it sounds like it comes from the speaker its a lot louder than the parking sensors

BUT confession time

Yesterday i jet washed (gently) under the bonnet and the noise only happened 5-6 times yesterday. Its NOT happened once today?

 

Bugger

just been for another spin and the beep alarm went off again

YES its loud and it does come from the dash NOT the speaker

cheers for any solutions

John

 

OK, uh,..RCM, uh,...water in trunk,...uh, batt,....oh hell can't think, you're avatar is too distracting

 

Hi,

i'm not talking about the sound from the parking sensors, i'm talking about the alarm sound you get when the door is open and the headlights are on.

If the sound ist louder than the sound from the headlights on and door open this is the engine warning sound which comes from the instrument cluster. Normally you get this sound if your'e low on oil pressure. If everything is OK ith your engine and compressor you should check the wiring diagrams and oil pressure sensors and connections to them.

Hi Markus

this only happens after driving some time and after using the kick down

IT IS the loudest off all beeps/alarms associated with this car it DOES come from instrument panel IE behind speedo

there are NO warning lights symbols with the beep??????

just has a service oil looks very full ( top of plastic ) and as clean as a whistle
