2016 Dynamax DX3 - Cab chime continuous during operation.

Has anybody had the following issue. Been on the road for a month now. Few weeks ago started having an intermittent issue with odometer back lite and cab courtesy lights coming on all by themselves while coach was parked for the day at our overnight stops, this is with the key out of the ignition.

Usually would stay on for several minutes then mysteriously go out like a ghost in the machine. Over the last several days, has becoming more frequent to the point where a couple of days ago that I had to disconnect the cab battery via the switch. When heading out yesterday, when I released the air brake, the rig starts chiming like door open or seatbelt not on continuously. Yesterday's drive totally sucked with that dam chime going off during the whole drive.

I am wondering if it has anything to do with the cluster service advisory I have seen posted recently on this forum. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Trying decide which freightliner dealer to take to in west central Florida where we will be for the next month.

Regards,

Could be. I do know that if you open the door the dash will light up, no matter what.

Also, that a common problem is not shutting the cab door all the way. Seems closed but is not. That seems to cause some weird stuff too. Gotta slam those doors.

This a copy of the service campaign for the instrument cluster replacement.

Your problem may be a Freightliner issue, but I don't think it relates to the
service campaign. Had mine changed last week, only thing is that your miles go to zero. I guess that is a good thing, bad thing, depending how you look at it.
