Just had this up yesterday, any ideas?

Checked the fluid, seems ok, if filthy. I had been messing about taking the trim off around the gearstick. Recent new pads and discs.

Chimes every few minutes so must be a BCM call?

(Will be going down to MF for a quick rack soon so could check then.)

If you've had the trim off, did you definitely remember to plug the TC, fog light and window switches back in? (I have no idea if leaving these unplugged would cause it to chime!)

You hadn't left the handbrake on ever so slightly?

That's what I was thinking, mine plays a nice little tune if it's slightly on

Good point. Its done some miles and doesn't do a lot these days so the brake cable might not be fully releasing. I'll get under and check.

(That "tune" does your head in!)

Cheers Guys.

Had the trim off to fit scan gauges but did not remove any cabling/plugs. I rechecked the connections afterwards when I got the bells.

Thanks.
