So this damn truck just started once again with a new issue, out of no where with no key or anything in the truck it'll just keep honking every 30 seconds. Truck has no alarm or anything. If I start truck it won't do it while running.

Any idea??

It may be your key fob if you have one.... I know the insides can come loose causing all kinds of weird stuff to happen. One my Challenger it caused the power windows to roll down randomly!!!! Replaced key fob, and it solved the problem.

This thread is killing me LOL. Autobots... blow out!

Anyhow is it a timed beeping like intentional electronic type triggering or just a random beep here and there?

lol I just got transformer thing lol wow I'm slow..

It doesn't happen everyday but every once in awhile it'll just start honking randomly and literally every 30 seconds. I forget how I got it to stop before but this time I pulled the fuse. I rarely use my horn but of course the time I pull the fuse I want to use it. So I'd like to figure it out just incase lol

Anyone ever figure this out? My 03 dually just started this. Rythmic beep, about every 30 seconds, all gauges jump when it beeps, horn won't work when pressed, and only happens when doors closed and key off.

My 09 just started this as well. It does the double beep like the remote start is trying to be activated. It does it daily but only once or twice during the day then stops.

Can I use AlfaOBD to reset anything?
