Since the car was brand new if I ever pushed the vehicle or let it roll without the motor running but the key is in the run position I would get a constant frequency beep beep (pause) beep beep. As of yesterday I started getting the beep when the engine was running and I am moving either in forwad or reverse. Any ideas?

You've had your FC since it was new! Lucky! Well, is your FC an auto or 5spd? JW. Also, the FC will sometimes beep if there is no ground connection to the ignition like that when the key is in the "run" position. If it was beeping while moving w/ the motor off, its probably because there was no charge, if its doing it now w/ the motor running, your alternator may be weak or there could be a loose ground in the ignition....this is of course only one possibility, the FCs have MANY MANY warning beeps, etc...

Are there any idiot lights going off associated with this beep?



I'm sure you would have noticed, just thought I'd ask.

Hey, I got the same problem. I was told it was my altonator, but i have changed it, and i was told it was my stering computer. I even looked under the dash to kill whatever was making the noise and found nothing, but that's whare the noise was coming from. I think it's just a curse. The 7's arn't happy, they need a 4th gen to keep them happy. It's there cry for a better tommorrow!!
