name this tune!!!

ok so i got this annoying noise after i had a new to car engine put in...its coming from the general location that you see on in the video...does anyone know what it is and how to stop it...its not as bad in pertson but still enough to cause a nice headache on the way to and from work...all the idiot cluster lights are off when the car is actually running...i did not turn the engone on for this...but it happens when it is on or off

I don't have speakers on my computer here, but the fax machine comment reminded me of my open door buzzer (or was it seatbelt?). When it decides to work, it sounds like an old dot-matrix printer, only quieter. Or maybe like one of those old printing calculators...

Anyway, best of luck!

I would guess an aftermarket alarm that has lost its ground and has an interior siren.

Pull the glove box and see if that lets you narrow it down.

could be the stock stereo. It sounds like the beeping sound the radio makes when you assigne a station to a number but constant. try taking out the fuse for the stereo.

Yeah, that is probably the next steps... start pulling fuses (one at a time) to see what circuit the buzzer is in.

Watch the Apple flaming! I prefer my cars without pistons and my computers without Windows!
