I drive a 98 Ford Ranger all day, it has 266,900
miles on it, rebuilt engine, trans, new a/c , and
before all that work and now, when I start it up,
after 30 or seconds, it emits a five tone tone
5 times.  It is to saythe least, very annoying.
Also after driving for half an hour it will cycle
those tones again, though lower in volume.
I thought itwas the Nextel phone trying to connect, as it has been
disabed, but I cut the
phone speaker wires, and the tone is there.
It is five tones done in a five tone cycle 5 times
each time on starting.
How do I kill it?? It is a company truck.
Thank you. Patrick

Seatbelt warning?

Happened across this a few days ago regarding the supplemntal restraint
system (air bag warning light)  for my explorer  a few days ago:

"If the air bag indicator is inoperative and an SRS fault exists, a chime
will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air
bag indicator will need to be repaired before diagnosis can continue."

The beeps are a backup method of telling you that your airbags have a problem.
