Start alarm beeping under dash!
Hi everyone!
First post hope will not be the last!
I am not sure how to describe the issue I am facing!
It starting when the battery was disconnected to do some works.
After re-connecting the battery, the beeping sound which comes from under the front dash in drivers side for couple of beeps then it come from all around speakers. Also while reversing, the warring sound comes from the stereo system allowing you to identify either if the vehicles are coming from left or right side.
The problem I started to face is that, the beeping is now only coming from under driver side dash only, and even while reversing the alarms only come from under the dash!
I tried to disconnected the battery and re connecting it again without any result!
Hope I was able to describe the issue! Looking forward to hearing for ideas and solutions XD
Cheers,
Yousuf

Are you positive it has to do with a start alarm? Does your airbag light come on when you first turn the key on? The SRS (airbag) system will emit a beeping to let you know the dash light is not functioning.

So many things it could be. You didn't post the year so i have no idea if it is warranty or not. However, I noticed the brake light was still on, do you have the ebrake on? Try before starting turn the key to on moved shifter from Park then put it back into park. Insure all doors are closed well. Make sure the hood is completely closed. I have had it alarm for each of these. There might be a couple more but I can't think of them at the moment.

This is normally a issue with the APIM. The truck will default to IPC sound when the APIM won't acknowledge. Have you made any changes with Forscan?

It's a 2017 Lariat.
The Alarms keeps coming from under the dash even while driving, so we un-check most of the concerns you've mentioned.

Matter of fact yes! but it was quit on early February this year.
Everything was fine until I took it to the garage to fix an issue with the Starter where the technician dis-connected the battery - this was on July!
I faced the issue couple of times where it came and went back normal by itself.
But since couple of weeks it did. not go back to normal!

Hi Mate,
I bought OBDLINK MX+ OBD2 Bluetooth Scanner, and after connecting it using FORScan and running some tests. It showed that Speaker no#2 "Circuit Open"
And when I directed the audio sound to play only from front left speaker, I heard nothing!!
Thus, it looks clearly the issue I am facing is due to that speaker not working!
I will look into it within couple of days and hopefully once the speaker is fixed it will get back to normal!
Thanks for the hint though

BIG UPDATE: ISSUE SOLVED XD
After testing the speaker is was not working and the power cables were rusted.
Took it to a Tech. and he replaced the cables and the coil!
Kept it to rest during the night for the glue to dry.
connected back to the vehicle; and everything went back to normal as it should be XD
Thanks all for your suggestions and advise
until the next problem,
STAY SAFE YA'LL
