Default Re: beep when open car door

Hi,

I think i may have just figured it out, and I think it is actually related
to the headlights. I just went down to my car to experiment with what the
difference was between when the car would beep when I opened the door and
when it wouldn't. When I unlock the door with the remote transmitter, the
headlights flash quickly (which I didn't appreciate earlier during the
daytime (its night where I am now) - I previously didn't notice that the
headlights flashed). If I happen to open the car door at the same time the
headlights flash (within the first second or so after unlocking the car
with the remote transmitter), I hear a beep. However, if I wait a second
or two longer and open the door after the headlights flash, I do not hear
the beep. Thus, it seems that the beep is indeed related to the headlights
being on (even momentarily) when the car door is opened.

Thanks for your help.

Smitty
