Geiger counter or Electronic Ticking sound
It appears our 2020 s560 has Geiger counter near the head unit.
After the car is on for a few minutes you hear a HD read\write sort of sound. Then when the car is turned off (with no fan on) with radio still active you can still hear this..
Is this something you folks have experienced ? Maybe its got an advanced radiation feature...Oh I have turned off the ionization filter to be sure..
any thoughts or post you can point me to ?
Thanks
Ian

the part number 000-900-83-17-9051 and I understand it's a over head control unit. Like overhead lights or some sort of compartment that holds a control unit.

Or it could be that the Chinese or Russians have remotely tapped into your car and are trying to reprogram it or steal your data.
