An oddity ..
« on: 02 October 2008, 23:00:51 »

Over the last 4 days I've done 3 long trips 80+ miles, and 5-6 short ones 2-10 miles.

On 3 occasions as I've locked the car using the remote I've heard 4 high pitched "chirps". One after a long trip, 2 after short trips.

Reading the forums it seems it may be something to do with the power sounder ?? The alarm has not gone off at any time. This has not happened before.

Anyone any ideas ??

Yep. I'd pull it out sooner rather than later before it starts annoying the neighbours. In addition, if you catch it before the batteries leak all over the PCB a DIY battery replacement might be an option.
