In my 2004 Pathfinder LE I get 15 beeps when the ignition is set to on or I start the car. It happens almost every tine I start the car. I have no clue what it could be and its driving me crazy. I've searched far and wide for a thread or site or something where someone else has had this problem or fixed it and none exist. I do have tpms but all tires are inflated and the light isn't on. Does anyone have an idea as to what this could be?
If it makes any difference I occasionally get a temp gauge misreading and p0128 and my engine seems to run on the cool side. About 140-155 fwt.
Here is a video of me starting the car in the dark with my seat belt already on to rule out that notification:

Put the seatbelt on before you start the car. Does the beeping go away?

No lol. It makes no difference. They are shorter beeps than the seat belt one and there are exactly 15 every time. If its seat belt related, its not because I don't put it on.

Here it is beeping with me in my seatbelt before startup. I'll link the op as well.

Close the door and it will stop.

Also inspect the driver door switch, it may be damaged and making the car think the door is always open.

As far as I can tell there is nothing wrong with the door switch. It looks fine and I don't have a notification light on the dash. The exterior lights seem to stay on do a long time after locking the car though so I suppose it could be a door. The beeping with the door open is different from the beeping that I get when starting though.
