Default Weird annoying problem....

So the little beeper or whatever that beep when you have your door open or it also sounds when your pressing different buttons to reset the dic and what not. It starting to sound muffled and really quiet almost like its dieing, does this happen or could this be something else? My battery is 100% good. Thanks in advance!

Sort of sounds like the car thinks the headlamps were left on. Pull your codes first.

Your one of 5-6 people that experience this issue. It deals with the speaker driver amp inside the IPC.

UNFORTUNITLY,,, no one has any schematics for the inside of the IPC and figuring out what component the amp / driver is going to be tough. Short of swapping out the board, or disconnecting the speaker, i don’t know what to tell you.
