Beeping sound just started

Hi all My Discovery 2 TD5 has started to beep when I put on the left indicator, it sounds like the sound is from the right side rear!
Any help would be a great help thanks in advance for any help.

Hi, what kind of "beep"like those when you leave the lamps on or like the horn?, can you record and post it here? on the right side rear is the BBUS which has a sounder but it has no link to the indicators... unfortunately this seems a verry odd issue and the first suspect is the interior fusebox, i've seen various oddities in my life but this one is by far the strangest

Thanks Sierrafery I'll go and record it just now.

I am just gonna put this out there.

Do you have a towbar?
Is it the audible for indicators when towbar used?

I didnt know that the D2 has such audible warning... mine doesnt, maybe facelifts? but even then i suppose that this one should come from the IP's sounder for bot side's indicators not just left and not from rear RH side, if you have such thing IMO it's retrofitted

Some after market ones fit audible sounders ...

Hi Sierafery
Can't figure out my phone but it sounds like a forklift reversing, its coming from the rear right hand side.

Well dog my cats...i've never seen such thing but as i said the only sounder there is the BBUS(battery backed up sounder) which is part of the alarm system and i can't see how the left indicator command could trigger that other than a short circuit within the fusebox or somewhere else on the circuit or in the worst case a BCU misbehaviour, everything else is working as it should, no other oddity at all?

Yip guys
Someone had fitted a sounder, it was scotch locked on.
Now disconnected one of the wires in a scotch lock had came loose.
All's quiet now.
Thanks for the help.

The problem is that if it just started and didnt do it untill now there is still some issue unless somebody fitted that sounder while you was sleeping and the question is what was that sounder for?

And it was connected to what?

Not got a clue just chopped the wires and shrunk the ends.
Was not at the garage will have a look latter when I have the time.

Do you have a towbar?
And have you ever used it?

Sierrafery
The wires went to the wiring for the tow bar.
Yes Marjon it did have one but I took it off about three months ago when I fitted my Wildbear bumper.

Prolly got some water in it and the circuit played the yes/no game ...

Suggest you remove any more of the towbar wiring then to avoid future problems.

Yes will be doing that as I'm not going to be towing anything anyway.
