Unhappy Beeping Sound When I Turn Off the Car

I have a 1990 LS400. It have over 260,000 miles on it and it is still running.

Recently I noticed when I turn the engine off I get a series of fast beeping sounds. It contiunes even after I take the key out of the ignition. It probably last less than 30 seconds.

I don't know what the problem is... I looked in my manual and online with no luck.

Any ideas? I don't want to take the car to the dealer to get it diagnosed.

Thanks,
Lizzie

yup, what he said above. Maybe you've got the sunroof tilted.

Default Thank you !

After all these years and about 275,000 miles on my 1993 LS-400 I heard the beeping sound for the first time. Had no clue what it was, Club Lexus saved me again ! I’m a long time member. Thank you !
