Glad you got it resolved, John - - - one less thing on your "To Do" list!!!

Isn't it amazing how those little beeps and tones seem to move around when you're trying to locate the source.

Change all your smoke detector batteries.

Thanx for the suggestions. We don't have a smoke alarm or co detector in the kitchen so that couldn't be the problem. We did leave dishes in the dishwasher when we left and stopped the washing prematurely. Maybe we should try to do another load and see what happens.

I bet $1,000,000 it's the dishwasher! It doesn't like it's cycle to be upset! Check the manual on how to reset it...running it again may not fix the problem!

We had the same problem. I turned off breakers one at a time until I found it. It was the dishwasher.

Check the smoke detectors. The sound travels which is the intent.

See post #15 - the O.P. got it figured out.

It sounds like the noise that the microwave makes when the "food is ready". Depending on where we stand in the kitchen the noise seems to move around from one side to the other. I believe this is because the volume is not consistent from beep to beep. So to find out what was making this noise I unplugged various stuff in the kitchen (except for the refrigerator and oven), I opened all the cabinets to see whether I could hear something in each one, opened up all the drawers to see what might be causing this sound. I thought it might be an old watch in the kitchen but that wasn't it. I don't know what else to do and am hoping that someone on this board may have a suggestion or has been thru this same thing. However, to be honest, I am not optimistic.

Thanx

We had the same problem. We changed smoke detector batteries several times. It turned out to be the cordless phone's battery.

This is, by far, the funniest thread I have read recently. Please keep giving suggestions and CHANGE THE BATTERIES IN THE SMOKE DETECTOR(S)!!!!
