96 Ford Explorer making morse code through radio
1996 Ford Explorer, while driving all the lights came on, on the dash, and there was a morse code beeping through the radio speakers(Im not sure if its comes from the speakers - sounds like its in the dash), 3 long beeps then 2 fast beeps, followed by 2 long beeps, and then repeats after a few sec pause, I pulled over and now it wont start or anything, and it will continually keep doing the beeping.
Everything is factory, and a regular key
Please let me know if ya have heard of this or know what it is, and how to fix it. Thanks

There is a factory key fob but that set an alarm and lock and unlocks the doors, I know for sure its not the factory radio or seat belt. The vehicle is payed and has no aftermarket device on it what so ever.

Ya, no bait car here, Ive owned if for 5 years, I got it started, and everything was working fine till I put it in drive and pressed the break pedal, and then it lost all electrical power went out (windows, a/c but not the radio but there was more static but could still here the radio). While that was all going on the ABS light was on, then I shut it off and then it wouldn't start again, like it was dead.
I have 3 error codes
P0761 Shift Solenoid C Performance or Stuck Off
P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction
P0300 Random / Multiple Cylinders Misfire Detected
Do ya think any off these codes could cause this problem?
or any suggestions?

With a power fluctuation as you describe, these could be random ghost codes. I would clear them and see if they return...
Having said that, I would clean all the electrical connections to/from the battery and as many grounds as you can find. Check the battery voltage, start the vehicle and measure charge rate.... Philip
