Default Warning buzzer on constantly.

I ran my GF home tonight, and stopped at a shop on the way. I left her in the car,unlocked , with the radio on, taking the key in with me. She told me when I got back that a buzzer had started going off when I was away. It is a loud high pitched constant sound, not the door/lights chime. It starts when I turn the ignition to off, and stays on when I take the key out and when I lock the car. When the ignition is on, or the engine is running, it stops.

Any ideas folks?

Well, went out to the car to see if the buzzer was still squawking. And it appears to have stopped. I took a little drive, making sure to do plenty of stop, switch off, restarts. It hasn't happened again, so perhaps it was a one off.

the door/headlight buzzer can be unplugged from the fuze box under the dash. deffinately on the 95's and 96's new ones are a different buzzer, not sure about the older ones.
