Mine was doing this when new, power sounder horn replaced by Vx under warranty resolved the problem.

But - I also had the occasional 4 beeps from under the bonnet, which means that the internal rechargeable batteries inside the power sounder died (prematurely, I may add).

If this is your problem, then the batteries can be obtained seperately and replaced albeit soldeing is required. You other option is a complete replacement power-sounder (around £100 from Vx, less if second-hand), or just disconnect it and live without it....

However.... if it only happened the once, I would suggest to just ignore it and see how frequently it comes back before taking further action.

HTH.
