Hi,
I have a 2001 LW300 with ~120K miles(long commute+travel)
Today, while driving on the highway, my car horn beeped by itself a few times. When it happened, I kinda assumed it was another car even though there was no reason for someone to beep. It was just a couple of short beeps.. Nothing else noticed on the rest of the drive to work.
On the way home, again on the highway, the door locks started clicking, At first I thought it was an electrical clicking in the radio, but it happened again. It didn't happen long enough for me to see if the lock knobs were actually moving.
After the car had been home for a while(~1 hour?), I went to run an errand and the car beeped a couple of short times just after starting and then in about 1 mile, the door locks clicked a few times again. Nothing happened for the rest of the trip...
It seems as if there's probably some wire chafed or chewed by something (I do see acorns in my engine on occasion), but I'm wondering if someone could give me an idea of where to look since apparently the horn and the door locks are involved. I'll take a quick look in the AM to see if there's anything obvious, but any help regarding locations to concentrate on would be appreciated.
Thanks, J
