Strange "beeps" all of a sudden

[Chris L.]

Hi all,

Two days ago my Aiwa mini audio system began producing strange beeps.
Only on the right channel (if I plug the headphones I only hear the
beeps on the right side. Left side is clean. The beeps are there with
headphones unplugged, too).

The beeps sound quite precisely every 1 second or so, that's why I
suspect that (for some reason) the clock ticker somehow became audible.

Touching the metal parts of the audio system's front side, affects the
beeps' volume, too. (Lowers the volume).

What should I look for? Or should I take the thing directly to the
repair shop?

Thanks a lot!

Does your system have an alarm clock built in?
