Installing headlight buzzer but lost instructions . . . . .

1995 model.

I picked up one of those little headligh buzzers b/c I'm always leaving my lights on.

It has two wires....a red and black.

Black is ground I guess.

Anyone have a guess where the red would hook up?

Thanks doods

I would imagine maybe the dome light/door switch...not sure tho. Maybe you could just wire wire the headlight relay so it needs the ignition to turn the lights on, similar to the radio or subs with a remote lead.

The red side goes to a fuse that is turned "on" with the light switch.

The black side goes to a fuse that is turned "off" with the ignition.

That way when the ignition is off, you "ground" the black terminal and if the lights are on, the red wire is +V, and the buzzer goes off.
