When I start my 08 Charger, there's an high pitched beep that goes off 3 times, only it doesn't happen every time.  There are no warning lights.  Why is it doing this?

Does your car seem too sluggish? Pull fuses #11 #14 and #16! Get in your car...Turn the ignition to "ON"; then turn it and hold it at "START" (it will not start). Wait 5-10 seconds until you hear the chime (mine beeped 3 times). Turn the ignition back to "ON"; turn the ignition back to "START" until you hear the chimes a second time. Put the fuses back in place (DO NOT mix them up) Start your car... The Computer is now reset: go "BURN RUBBER" (Tapout)
