tomo2001 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Anyone else with a new Focus noticed this ? Everytime I pull up on my driveway at home, switch the engine off and get out of the car there is a very quiet series of beeps coming from somewhere at the front of the car. Perhaps 5 or 6 beeps in total and I cannot seem to locate where it's coming from ! Only tend to hear it when I stop here because it a sheltered spot in a quiet cul-de-sac. Just wondered what it may be, doesn't bother me just intrigued. Maybe it's only relevant to members with keyless entry ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordpartsman Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 this will be the different things shutting down on the engine, for example the egg valve which makes a noise and also the fuel pump will shut down aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuke Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Hi, doesn't happen with my car which has keyless entry, all I get is the sound of relays clicking which is normal... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomo2001 Posted January 15, 2012 Author Share Posted January 15, 2012 Nope its deffo a series of beeps but very faint. Doesn't sound anything like a relay or fuel pump noise. this will be the different things shutting down on the engine, for example the egg valve which makes a noise and also the fuel pump will shut down aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leemaxd Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Yea my focus does this for a few seconds so does my diesel van, it's just certain things in the engine shutting down, nothing to worry about. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like from somewhere under the bonnet at the drivers side ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuke Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Hi, it is rather strange though, seeing as mine doesn't make a noise... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimrex Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Anyone else with a new Focus noticed this ? Everytime I pull up on my driveway at home, switch the engine off and get out of the car there is a very quiet series of beeps coming from somewhere at the front of the car. I've noticed it on mine but like you say, only when at home (probably as it's quieter than at work etc). I don't have keyless entry and just put it down to various systems doing their checks and shutting down. Never had it/noticed it on other cars I've owned though.

Unlike Cuke's car then, perhaps its particular to the diesel ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
