As for the idling...also check the rubber bellows going from the trottle housing to the air filter housing. Seen a few of these deteriorate on the bends and groves.

Don't forget to get some carb cleaner on the butterfly valve in the throttle housing...an old toothbrush works a treat

Glad you're getting it sorted
They do a series of 'self tests'. Can also be triggered when using the diagnostic box thingy to 'fault find'. Some thing like three presses of one of the buttons & it wiil 'test' various items like:

Indicators flash once
Leccy windows will drop an inch or so then raise
wiper will do one sweep & squirt too
Horn will beep.
H'lamps will raise & lower on 480's
etc....

Not in right order & it may do a few more.
I nearly jumped out of my skin when me horned beeped!
Good Luck.
