Since its last low-12V-battery incident, the Venerable Prius has, from time to time but especially at startup, been making a strange and rather alarming buzzing sound that seems to be coming from somewhere behind (properly speaking, forward of) the middle of the dashboard.
Something to do with the defroster? Turn that off; the buzzing still happens. The fan? Turn that off; the buzzing still (eventually) happens.
What else might have some sort of electromechanical dingus in that area, that could buzz not loudly but alarmingly?
Er. Come to think of it... it could be the CD player making a seeking noise. Maybe it's trying to play a disc that it doesn't like, despite the sound system being turned off. I'll have to check that out. Later.
