oh no its nothing to do with the dash, there are no warning lights (i.e CEL< tire pressure, Oil) i'm talking about when my 8 is on and just sitting in my driveway I can hear a high pitch beeping noise, coming from inside the hood, because i opened up the hood and I can hear it.....its like a high pitch BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! for a long period of time
