Hi,

A question for you techy ones.

My wife has 2 digital hearing aids and whilst driving today I had to use
kickdown to overtake a very slow car on a narrow road. Really hit it hard.

We were both very surprised when both her hearing aids gave 3 loud beeps.

Any idea what could have caused that and more important could it have any
effect on either the car or hearing aids?

TIA,

ErnieH

What car?
Standard or Gassed?

Still can't take this seriously but I hear what you're saying.

H'mm I was going to suggest it could have been the LPG system but you won't
have one, our LPG system let out a few bleeps when I floored it once and the
ECU dropped to petrol... apartenly some sort of safety feature... most
impressive had I known what is was doing but startling on an overtake
situation... just waited for the oxygen masks to drop from the roof ;-)

Sorry I'm not helping much!
