mysterious beeping

Today I was playing my mp3 player in the aux jack while driving out of an icy parking lot. The rear tires spun, I maybe hit a pothole, and I heard three fast beeps, but as I was turning a sharp corner I could not look at the dash for any information. (lights) I wondered if it had something to do with traction control or something because of the conditions.

Later I noticed that the settings on my radio for bass/treble/fade/etc were all erased and sitting at 0. I wondered if I had a loose battery cable or something but when I switched from aux to radio and checked my radio presets they were all there. Nothing else changed anywhere and no CEL or anything. My radio has on occasion turned itself on and off when hitting bumps, but it has never erased settings like that before, and it did not turn on/off this time. Just weird! Any ideas?

 

The VSC system will beep when triggered

 

I thought that was probably it, and was confused when I saw the radio settings cleared. Thanks!

 

Yeah I know I need to look at that, it was just confusing to have them (seemingly) happen at the same time. Thanks!

 

That is your truck squealing with delight.
