My car has been beeping at random times and i dont know wat it means. It's not the temperature beep because, its 3 beeps and its not cold out. My service light is on for the routine check up, does that have anything to do with it? Thanks

maybe your door open sensor or something is messed up, and so the car thinks that your driver side door is stillopen. maybe its beeping because you dnt have your seat belt on? I dunno, there is no beep for that for my car. maybe the anit-theft radio or something beep. Ive never really dealt with that problem. my advice, find the speaker that is making the beep, and cover it with electrical tape, mute it.

I dont think its my door sensor because its three beeps right in a row, where as the door snesor is a continous beep til u close the door. I don't think i have a seat belt sensor. I dont know about the anti-theft radio thing, thanks for the tips tho.

You probably have the memo button pressed on your OBC. It will beep 2-3 min before the hour changes. If it is pressed you will have a light in the OBC display that looks something like this *)), except the dot is in the center not at the top.
