Hi Peeps,
I collected my new soul red CX 30 on the 22 Feb this year. With all of the COVID restrictions the car has been sat on the drive so I decided to have the paintwork treated to protect it from bird droppings. On collecting my car I have picked up a random beep. It’s loud and quite distinct but as I said really random. There are no other warning signs on the dash to tell me what this bloody beep is!!!
I’ve been back to the dealer and they can’t help, anyone got any ideas please?

Could it be a long beep or a high pitched buzz? If so, it could be the engine (here’s part of an earlier thread):

Buzzing/Humming

I anyone getting a buzzing / electrical humming noise when the car has been used and switched off/ locked, out side as you walk away , lasts for about 30-60 seconds? Thinking its a noisey fuel pump..

Hi,
No it is completely random and not speed related in anyway. It will beep maybe once as I reverse off the drive or it will beep repeatedly as I reverse off the drive. It will also beep as I’m driving in the same way i.e. either once or repeatedly. It doesn’t activate so much at higher, steadier speeds such as on duel carriageway or motorway. It must also be system linked as the music system reduces reduces in volume when the beep sounds. IT’S NOT ANNOYING AT ALL HONEST!!!!
Any help greatly appreciated.

Dose your CX 30 happen to have cross traffic alert and collision avoidance by any chance? With rear parking assist and rear cross traffic alert?

 

[SteveP]

Yes it does.

 

[detailcarguy]

Yes it does.

Any warnings come up when it goes off beeping?? Also try temperarly turning it off with the button on the driver's side with the vehicle with a circle around it and see if it goes away .. I have a feeling it's the safety features.. have you had a vehicle with these things before? It will beep and you as well with the blind spot montering when someone is in your blind spot.

No warnings, that’s the main problem with finding out what this random beep is! I have had a car with these features before but didn’t have this issue.
The other point here is the beep only started after I had the paint protection applied. I know it’s not that causing the problem, it’s more likely to be that the guys who did the work whilst sanitising my car for COVID protection have changed a setting on the dash or one of the other settings.
I have switched everything off then switched them back on individually but the beep goes on! Lol

Factory reset maybe ? In mazda connect.. also record it if you can as. I want to hear it as I might know what it is but don't know much of anything if I can't hear it.

 

[SteveP]

I’ll give the reset a go and see if I can capture the beep on my phone.

Lol yah otherwise all is can think of is montey python.. it's the machine that goes bing! 😂😂 And plus you are in the UK so I can't help my self with that joke 😋

Hi

If you've had it sprayed then could they have sprayed over a sensor somewhere so it thinks something is there when it's not, maybe??

Good luck. Only had mine a week, and still trying to identify a lot of different beeps! 😊

Hi
A full reset cured the beep problem but caused my voice activated systems to stop working. The new issue is being looked at by my dealership, wish me luck!

I too am having exactly this random issue. I have switched off all the safety and proximity alerts I can find but it still occurs. This is ever since I had a system update for a recall issue on the tailgate.
How do you do a reset and what are the normal reset issues?
Is this not a known issue on this particular connect system version?

Hello. I had the same random beep issue. It turned out to be the engine lock/immobiliser chip low battery notification (third party accessory my cal dealer had installed - in my case Pandora).

hi, new 2021 CX-30 AWD Premium Turbo owner here (2 weeks). We traded in a Lexus GX (Gas Prices!!) and are very frustrated with the random single beep. We have tried to isolate it by turning off every feature With no luck.

It is very random and a single beep, often 5-10 beeps will happen in a 20 minute journey about the town. No changes on the dash, no changes in speed limit signs, even can happen on the freeway at 75 when no one around. Very random.

Getting so frustrated after two weeks we are thinking of going back to a Lexus. It would be hard to replicate at the service center based on the entirely random nature unless they want to drive for a while! I did capture it on my phone so will try to upload that if it is even possible here.

We thank you for any suggestions! We have tried the instrument dimming light suggestion some have said, disabled every feature under options, even used the far left button to disable all the safety items - still randomly goes off, just a single beep each time and it will lower the sound on the music if the music is on. nothing has been on the passanger’s seat, or has had two occupants so it's not a seat sensor. No plastic protection has been applied, the car is clean and nothing covering a sensor. Any other suggestions?

Also what method it there to “reset” everything mentioned above?

 

[ColoradoVRs]

The Link is in the next post -- it is more of a CHIME vs a beep upon listening. It happens at least 5 times in a 15 minute drive with NO screen indication that it means something....

Very annoying...

 

[SkuTorr]

This could have been the problem...?
