Macbook making audio noise every 10 seconds even when shut down.

How do I get my computer to stop making noise every ten seconds? It is nonstop. It is like a startup noise.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13

Is it the "ding" sound the laptop makes when connecting the USB-C charger to the laptop? If so, then it may indicate a problem with the charger, charging cable, or the laptop's charging system. You can try an SMC Reset if you have an Intel Mac.


Try running the Apple Diagnostics.
