Key and headlight buzzer.

Changed the turn signal switch on my 86 F150 and noticed a terminal for the key in buzzer. After a little research I found that the buzzer should be behind the glove box and also serves as a headlight on warning. The base models didn't come with the buzzer but the harness is there. Found a guy on eBay selling OEM buzzers for $21.96. Got one, plugged it in and I now have key and headlight warning. He still has 10 available. Search part # E43B-10B924-AB

1980/83 uses a different switch (D6AZ-10B924-A and it's only for the seat belt)...than 1984/96.

I "converted/ rewired" my buzzer to only buzz IF:

1. the engine is OFF,
2. the lights (or markers) are on,
and
3. the door MUST be open.
opening the door with lights on triggers the buzzer to buzz.....

More details about the wiring changes, please. I'd like to modify my buzzer like that, too.
