chirping mk1

[Skyscooter1]

Hi guys,
I have a 1996 mk1 (NA) 1.8i.

When I switch off I get a 2 tone chirping noise from the radio speakers, does anyone know what this is.
I'm assuming it's a notification of something amiss and I'm guessing it's the immobilizer?

I'm not sure what I should do to address this issue can anyone offer some advice?

Thanks guys

Sure it's not the stereo just warning you that you have left the face attached?

I didn't think of that, I'll try it and see and let you know.

Thanks for your input it's much appreciated.

If it's a Sony (10yr old vintage) it will go "bedo bedo, bedo bedo"

Anyone else read that as chipping a Mk1

That's it, that's exactly it.

Thanks for your help it's very much appreciated

Out of interest, what stereo do you have?
Mine does the same but has an option to turn it off.

Hi it was the stereo you were correct.

It's a Sony, I don't have a hand book for it, I'll see if I can find one on the internet.

Thanks for your help.

I was hoping OP had inadvertently bought a car with a welded diff

When I was a kid, my dad had an E36 3 series with a Sony CD player which made that noise when you took the key out the ignition. Always remembered that for some reason.
