bleeping like a 70's computer

ok i have wondered this since i bought the car, when i am sitting at a light alot of the time (not all) theres a bleeping from behind the dash. kinda like something youd hear in a movie with big wall computers, that kinda of bleeping.
it some times will do with the turn signal but it'll blwwp with out the turn signal on too.

its gettin really irritating but it doesent seem to affect any thing.

Gotta pop your head under there & take a listen. Prolly the door / headlight chime or turn / hazards relay.

in my S130 the switch in the door sill for the lights etc... would go off if I took a corner too fast... was kinda funny.

or... dont take any car out if your gonna drink. plan ahead. cause one day there wont be any one there and you'll say "aww **** it" and then somethign will hapen. ive done it. i got kinda drunk, mostly just super tipsy, and it was snowing so i got home hopped in the Z (it was late at night at least) and went drifting in my neighborhood for like an hour straight. as sweet as it was and i did really good actually, it was ****in stupid.

or i can walk to my girlfriends house if need be since its a block away from the bar now, either way i dont do stupid.

she doesent like it if i come from the bar to her house because i smell like smoke hella bad, i dont smoke but bars, you know. but i did buy her a can of air freshner that was on clearence at fred meyer the other day so she can deal with it.
