Why does a single beep sound occur when I initiate a turn

Asked by wiener54 Sep 09, 2015 at 08:57 PM about the 2013 Jeep Patriot Latitude

Question type: General

When I initiate a turn a single "ding" sound can be heard. I don't get a message
on the control panel. The left turn indicator flashes extremely fast(internal not
external) but the right turn indicator flashes normal. It just started this last week.
If I don't use the signal the ding sound doesn't occur. And it doesn't occur every
time I use the signal.

A rapid flash is usually an indication of a burned out bulb. Stand outside your vehicle and have someone go through the turn signals. You should notice something is not working.

What does it mean when you hear a single bell when you put on your left signal and no warning signs are on the dashboard?

I have the same ding sound when I turn left in my 2018 Jeep Cherokee Latitude Plus. It's a new vehicle and the bulbs don't need replaced.

Single chime with no notification can be the brake lights or turn signal bulb filament burned out. rapid turn signal also indicates burned turn signal bulb filament burned out. Chime only occurs once at the first or second use of brake or turns.
