    Receiving three outside beeps while driving. Happen about every 3-5 minutes. No warning lights are on. All doors are closed. Keys batteries were replaced a few months ago.

    Could be the sensor is not getting a clear signal from the fob. Could be caused from a fob in a purse away from the sensor or otherwise shielded from the sensor or a cell phone too close to the fob causing disruptive signals. Batteries cannot be assumed to be good either just because they are bought new.

    Thank you. It was the cell phone too close to the key fob.
