Ok, so my car is making this really REALLY high pitch noise. It's coming from the wires that are right near the fuse box. I thought it was coming from the speaker, but it isn't because I took the speaker out, turned on the car, and it was still doing it. So it's not the speaker. If I turn on the car, it does it. If I turn on the car, and turn the key back to the "off" position, but leave it in the car, the sound stays. if I take the key OUT of the ignition, it turns off. Anybody have ANY idea what is making this noise? It's seriously driving me crazy

thx

Check the oscillator, right behind the driver's side headlamp, it controls the low coolant beeper. It looks like a small black relay with 4 wires on it I think.

 

It's the you-left-the-key-in-the-ignition-and-you-have-a-door-opened-or-not-properly-closed alarm.

 

no that's just the 12a doing it's thing. ZING!

at least it isn't your door ajar bell going off CONSTANTLY 'cause the sensor is all wet. yeah that almost drove me to the edge.

 

When you get older, much older, you will not be able to hear this things. Only the constant noise in your ears. enjoy while you cam. old fart

 

I hear my monitor emitting a high-pitch noise all the time. Seems my hearing works in a higher than normal range

 

BINGO!!! Thanks!!!!

I guess I haven't really ever worked on my car with the door closed... heh (nor do I drive it... yet...)

 

no prob

 

Me too. Monitors, tv's. It drives me nuts when someone leaves a tv on, and shuts off the DirecTV/Cable/VCR/DVD player, so the screen is black, and there is sound other than that hellish squeal.

 

Mine did that too. What I found was my dome light was supposed to be on, but it had no bulb. So I think I put it on "off" and it stopped making the noise. Mine did it only when the clear plastic cover was on over the light.

BTW, I drove with the noise for over a month, an hour trip each way to and from work, 4 days a week. It helps if you leave the windows down (:

 

i agree i'll walk into a house and will imediately know if theres a tv on the only way i can stand it is to have music on or the sound system. it must come from hearing every little sound on your 7 and wondering what it is. Is it just me or do things on the seven fix themselves?
