If you take a bunch of tin foil and shape into the shape of a cone and then put it on your head, it's supposed to (but I've never tried it myself though) clear up the static in those messages. It's been rumoured that when it happens you can also wear the tin foil reciever and touch one hand on the speaker and outstretch the other arm and slowly rotate your body to find the best reception direction - that I know has been proven. :wink:

I have never heard or read anything like that for our MX-3's. However.. seeing as that you are in Denmark.. I suppose anything is possible.. though I seriously doubt it. What year is your car? Is your car equipped with a Check Engine Light?

I see why you might draw that conclusion.. but the beeping he is referring to is the same kind of beeping you get when you leave your lights on or when you leave the key in your ignition when you open your door. You are saying that you are hearing a sound from the stereo speakers correct? Even if you have a factory stereo still in your car.. I dont think you would be hearing any sound indicators from the speakers for errors. I cant say this will 100% certainty.. but either your original post is misleading or the two sounds are different between your post and that other thread.

I have installed an Amplifier connectet to speakers, but the beeping sound don´t come from them. it comes from the original rear spekers that is still connectet to the headunit. I don`t think it has nothing to do with the headunit because it made the same beeping with the old unit..
do you undestand what i mean? it´s not so easy for me explaning it in english..

Well...maybe someone who owned the car before him rewired the noise for the airbags (seatbelts, doors, etc.) to the speakers..?

Maybe they were deaf and had a bad habit of not putting their airbag away before starting to drive.

Let me ask a couple of questions here... You only hear the sound when you shut off the car right? Does this happen every time you shut down the car? Or only in specific places or locations, like you only hear it at home or at work or at school or where ever.
