2003 Ford Escape, I had the same issue. Beeping coming from dashboard, after starting. 5 sets of 3 beeps, 3 times, than 5 minutes later it would do it again. No codes, no lights on.
after extensive searching and research. Not finding anyway to make it stop, no one knows what it is. The dealership mechanics are useless.
Since it obviously, is not a safety factor, and no one can tell me anything definitive.
it's time to make this stop.
Chasing the sound, with mechanics stethoscope. I narrowed it down to beeping coming from behind the
gage cluster.it took about 10 minutes to carefully disassemble the gage cluster. I found the little black Cylinder, about 1/2 inch in diameter, 3/4 inch tall, attached to center of the circuit board in the gage cluster. I plugged the circuit board in to the harness where the gage cluster was. It definitely is the speaker for the beep.
I used a die grinder to carefully cut the top off the Cylinder. Needle nose pliers to remove the aluminum speaker cone, just pulled it off and discarded it. The copper wire that I'm sure was the driver part of the little speaker also came out. I removed all of it. Leaving the cylinder, an empty shell.
Put all back together, no lights,no sounds, problem solved.
It is the airbag. I have the same problem. It is a warning that they need to replace the airbag system. It costs over $1000 to fix and I am looking for other alternatives.
