My 2005 Venture started making what sounds like a cell phone ringing sound when I start the engine. It's never done that before today. Any ideas? Thanx in advance!

 

Sounds like a vacume line leaking. Where's it coming from?

 

It's up under the dash by the steering wheel. Sounds exactly like a generic cell phone ringer. Happens when I start the engine for about 10 seconds. Also does it after I shut the engine off and get out of the van.

 

Does it make any sounds when you change the vent selector. Check your lines going to and from your vacume vent selector. Or does it do it when you turn the key on or just after you start it and turn it off?

 

I found out what was causing the sound. It turns out that the dealer I bought it from installs a GPS locater in all of their vehicles so they can find it if the buyer misses a couple of payments. It's not supposed to sound off if a payment has been made, the dealer forgot to reset it after my last payment. I guess that will get your attention! Anyway, thanx for responding.
