    Make sure the battery terminals and clamps are clean and tight.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    All the usual suspects, battery, alternator, cable connection points and a possible earth leak/short somewhere. Just a matter of elimination. When did you last check battery water, terminals and the cable mounting points, both ends of all cables, for corrosion. Check all your fuses inside and under the bonnet while you are at it. Only takes 1/2 hour and well worth doing. Can save you a bundle at the sparkies

    Sounds slightly like mine. i have one terminal that plays up from time to time. i have heard the one beep. ive had the cd player ask for the code the next day. ive seen the dash go blank. and its all this terminal that plays up occasionally. i'm just going to change them both when i get around to it.
