That's odd... I wonder how that could trigger the V1. There's a way you can troubleshoot it, though. If you have a way to do it, take the V1 out of the car and put it a few yards behind the car. Give the unit power and see if the beeps are now detected up ahead. Or, move to the side and see if the beeps change to indicate coming from the side. If you get the beeps often enough, you could try this method to pinpoint the source. Maybe. I'm just thinking with my typing fingers here!

unless your meth system uses radar I don't think it can affect the V1

You could also temporary stick it in another car and see what happens.

Do you have a cell phone charger in it plugged in? I had this exact same thing happening on my '99 whenever the charger was running. On the C-6's, its worse... causes considerable more serious issues with the car itself.
