Thread: ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping

I have a theory


Have you tried turning off your headlights?

Did you open the door with the lights on?


HOWZAT! Snap.

A couple of years ago these devices cost 120000 pounds.


I'd say (if your lights are extinguished when the pingy thing goes ping) then you may have a loose connection on your headlight switch on the stalk.

No the headlights are off, it just does it all the time whenever I open my door.

What are your dash lights doing when you turn the headlights on and off? Do they dim at all?

I was talking about a ping ping ping problem last week with a friend who is also on here.

Mine doesn't do it but apparently it is a fault in the ignition barrel.

Maybe they will pipe up and tell you for sure.

They fixed it whatever it was anyway.

Duncan, is it the same noise as when the lights are on?

I would describe it as a Beep, beep, beep....................................

The ignition barrel would be on the same circuit but it may also be a fault anywhere within this circuit you just have to find out where.
