Headlamps On Warning Chime
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Montego, 2006 Ford Freestyle, and 2006 Ford Five Hundred. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The headlamp chime is activated when the instrument cluster receives the parking lamps ON signal from the smart junction box (SJB), the key is out of the ignition, and the driver door is ajar. The warning consists of repeated one-half second bursts and continues to sound until the exterior lamps are turned off, the driver door is closed, or 10 minutes have elapsed, at which time the battery saver turns the exterior lamps off.
