Reverse warning beeper
Today I bought a new 2011 F350 Super Duty 4x4 FX4. Shortly thereafter I learned it had one of those annoying backup warning beepers that activates every time the truck is put into reverse. The salesman was unable to figure out how to shut the thing off and he was unable to locate anyone at the dealership who knew how to do it either. The dash screen showing "1 Warning" but no info on how to shut the thing off. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you rollerstud98 but this doesn't work on my problem. What it does do is shut of the rear reverse sensors so I don't get that warning. However, even if I do this, that darn annoying back up beeper keeps beeping. Makes the truck sound like a piece of construction equipment in my driveway!

ohhh sorry, my misunderstanding. The truck came with it from factory? On my work van the beeper is out in the open and if I wanted to disable it I would cut the wires off at the beeper and just put some heat shrink over the exposed ends to seal them off from any exposure to the elements.

That's just there so Chevys can move out of the way before they get sucked up the tail pipe of a REAL truck.

Some members talked about it a couple of months back & I think they disconnected it by the rear bumper where there is a plug.

I was kind of afraid I was going to have to do something like that. I was hoping for the elegant solution of turning it off on the LCD screen in the dash. I guess if I can't get elegant I'll get a hammer. Thanks.
