Anyone ever figure out the random beep coming from the trunk at start-up?

Default That's so weird...its the locking beep. I've had it happen a half dozen times.

No clue what's causing it.

Default 4 beeps?

it's been attributed to the backup alarm battery going low. i've had this for a while and usually hear it about 1 in every 6 starts. there have been a few threads about it so you might try to STFA..

Default different theories out there...

first time i heard it, i thought it was my amps, but they're working fine, so its not that....

other theories include fuel pump and alarm system, but nobody has a concrete answer
