Question:

Acura RSX dash problem - electrical wiring?

I have a 2003 Acura RSX base model with 80,000 miles on it. Over the last 2 weeks I have had a problem with my dash. Sometimes when I turn off my ignition, the dash lights will turn off and on and it will make a beeping sound. It will do this until I put the key back in and restart the car. It does not happen every time I turn off the ignition, only once in a while.Does anyone know the cause of this? Is this something I should worry about?I know about 6 months ago I had an instance where my car wouldn't start one day and I had to jump it, but when i took it to the shop they found nothing wrong with the battery or alternator. Also, the car has started fine ever since. Maybe something going wrong with electrical wiring?Thank you in advance for your help.

Answer:

On normal condition, the beeping sound is appear when you already turn off the engine and open the driver door but the key still hold in the hole, it's a security system to avoid key left. If the sound appear when the door still close, do check the wire connection between the key, the door, and the security system. A loosen wire will cause the sensor have a false reading. A bout 6 months ago problem, a lack of battery power can be the cause and when the engine has turn on the charging system is working and the battery is fine again after recharge. Do check the work of alternator and battery capability to save power.
