mtg138 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Just wondering what 6 beeps mean when turning the engine off? Looked in the manual and can't seem to find anything about it? It's a 2009 MK7 fiesta zetec s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazman23 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Did you ever figure it out? I think I have the same thing, 6 beeps in 3 groups of 2 one after the other, only when switching the engine off, but not every single time, it's happening regularly enough to concern me and no messages in the centre console. Something does try to appear on the screen but obviously I'm stopping the engine so by the time the beeps occur I've near enough switched the ignition off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattDRX Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Is it not you leaving the lights on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laumk7 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Doubt it, my first mk7 used to do it as well, never did get to the bottom of it, though there was so much wrong with that old car it was unbelievable! It didn't stop my love of festers and the mk7 s though, currently got a 7.5 and just ordered another one!

gillyallan Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Anything linked to Alarm? Ie. if it has sensors inside you have them disabled so it's letting you know it's in that state ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazman23 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 It's not the light warning, that one's only when you open the doors and the lights are still on. My car doesn't have an alarm unfortunately and its usually before youve even taken the key out of the ignition. If i could describe it in words the tone pattern would be "beeBoop-beeboop-beeboop" just that and not continuous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattDRX Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Do you have a Sony radio at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazman23 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Do you have a Sony radio at all? I don't think I do, just the standard one with bluetooth that the zetec comes with. I managed to catch a slight glimpse of what pops on the screen, pretty sure it starts with "brake..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtg138 Posted December 13, 2014 Author Share Posted December 13, 2014 yeah, for example i'll park up and turn the key to off, then it'll be 6 beeps (low tone, high tone, low tone x2). never noticed a warning sign flash up on the screen but it randomly happens so i never remember to look out for it! also i have the older radio (non sony) with bluetooth/aux and no usb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattDRX Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Is the radio fascia removable at all? If so take it off when beeping and see if it stops. It used to be a thing with certain radios to remind you to remove the fascia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike77 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I also get this happen on occasions. Still for the life of me ain't got a clue what it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcottam70 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I have exactly the same thing guys. Did u ever get to the bottom of it as I'm booking my car in to fords.

I caught a glimpse of the on screen error it says "ABS system Malfunction" I suspect it's just a glitch as no errors are reported in diagnostics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
