All Hondas for many years (at least 20) have had the four short "beep beep beep beep" sound if you leave the key in the ignition and open the door. Four dots is Morse Code for the letter H, for Honda.


I found this on NSXPrime. The source seems pretty reliable.

Just more worthless trivia to clog up your mind .

Did you hook up the finish line sensor in the front end behind the tow hook cover to the ignition switch?

Well there's your problem.

According to the morse code alphabet.

Aw c'mon. Where's your imagination, your sense of mystique?

And my NSX does the same thing, 4 beeps. It is a Honda after all. I can't see customs changing them all on the docks to "beep beeeeeeeeeep" .

You probably don't believe in Santa Clause, the Easter Bunny, or the Tooth Fairy either.
