Start up and shut down sounds intermittent

[Woonkie]

Why do I have cool start up and shut down sounds sometimes. But most of the time not?

Some folks have suggested it has to do with the LVB state of charge getting to a point that modules don't boot in the intended order, leading to the dull tones instead of the fancy tones.

Well. I just got a check engine and only 62% motor power. So probably right.

Hopefully it clears by morning, if not be on the look out for this:

Powertrain Malfunction/ Reduced Power

Is it silent most of the time? The four chimes is a seatbelt warning. If you are wearing your seatbelt while starting it should be silent.

Sometimes the seatbelt chime sounds like a 1998 Crown Vic; like a buzzer behind the dash. That's when the LVB is low. At least that's the theory.

Definitely, four ding-a-lings when starting while drivers seat belt is not latched.
