What could be causing this?
My car developed a piezo buzzer sound that sounds once every second for 7 beeps followed by a ~2 second silence and then it repeats the 7 beep cycle.
This happens only when the ignition is on and the driver's door is closed.
When the driver's door is opened, the buzzer stops.
Sometimes this cycle runs constantly. Sometimes it stops a few seconds.
The buzzer seems to be coming from under the driver's side dash.
It's difficult to find the buzzer because the sound goes off when the door is opened.
Sometimes, when this buzzer is activated, there is an accompanying cycling of the Rear Window Defogger Relay in the engine compartment fuse box.
Background:
Yesterday I removed the gauge cluster and the center console to do some wiring.
Also did other work such as replacing and testing turbo waste gate actuators.
Any help on diagnosing the cause of the buzzer and rear window defogger relay cycling would be greatly appreciated.
