Annoying Buzzer?

Post by Lunar »

If the car keys are still in the ignition and the engine is not running, there is an annoying little buzzer that sounds.
Does any one know where that buzzer is situated???

OH YEAH!

Took mine out yesterday afternoon!
The connection sits underneath the ignition switch. You have to take off the cover around the steering wheel housing.
There is a 2 wire connection (brown housing if I remember correctly) that you need to disconnect.
Works - no more buzzer!

Enjoy!

Does this only disconnect the door open buzzer or the lights on buzzer as well?

This is only for the "key in ignition/door open" alarm.
Lights on buzzer remains
