I get a beep and an ext mute warning when i plug my mobile phone into my in car hands free kit? Do you have a kit like this fitted?

There was something like this on here recently and I think it turned out to be the reversing light switch on the gearbox. If you can find it, disconnect the wiring as a test. Also look to see if the reversing lights keep coming on - get a friend to follow you.

Can you be more specific about which year and model?

 

I can make a number of suggestions for a mk1 2.2 HDi Exclusive but those will be no good if you have a mk2 1.6 HDi.

 

Maybe the display has been selected to the external input? On some models you can look from within the trip computer menu and pull up the last warning you missed, if it's still current.

Yes there is a hands free kit but never used. It happens all the time when the radio is on too.

Thanks for the reply

Thanks for your reply, Yes we do have a hands free Nokia kit installed but never use it. It seems to beep alot more when radio is on.

Had a similar problem on a pug 206, with nokia bluetooth kit, relay in kit had gone faulty and was bringing up the external mute (as though a call was incomming). removed all of the kit from the car and all was fine. (if you need the kit, you can just remove the connection to the radio - not sure which wire it is but one of them is for an external mute, you can then use the kit, but you will have to turn the radio down yourself)

Had the same problem when trying to fit a nokia kit, i emailed the tech guys at clarion and they advised that pin 1 on the connector block was the mute connection. (they were right)
