    Just randomly started doin it last week.. normally when you start the car you get the DING, DING, DING the second you start it up, right?

    Well, suddenly mine started having a delay... like it will start, dash and HU lights up.... and all will be silent for like 5 seconds, then the dings will come
    Once the HU didnt turn on for that period of time... like 5 seconds, then the HU got power and then the dings soon as the HU lit up.

    Also, one time I just turned the ignition on to play the radio while I was sittin in the car waiting, engine off... then I took the keys out, radio kept playing like normal, retained accessory power... but then I opened the door and the RAP didnt cut out, the radio kept playing.. Also I usually get chimes when I opened the door, didnt get a chime then. I had to put the key back into accessory, turn it off and take it back out, close the door and reopen it to get the radio to shut off.

    Seems like the turn signal also blinks out of rhythm sometimes... like tick, tick, tick, tick, tickticktick, tick, tick, ticktick, tick. But that's not all the time.

    All this started happening over the same few days, not really a problem atm, just curious about it and if it might be foreshadowing bigger problems looming up on me?

    Short? RAP issue? I know that the wire harness behind the HVAC controls tends to wear on a corner in there somewhere and can cause a short. Not sure if any of those wires track to RAP or the steering wheel but it might be worth a look
