You could always by pass the door switch so the truck thinks the door is always closed...but then that would also keep your dome lights from coming on when you open the doors.

Bet you have the Beltminder feature. Look in the owner's guide for instructions on how to disable the Beltminder feature.

Yep if you have your orginal manual, the instructions are in there. About 8 steps, kind of a pain, but they are there.

Killing Key in ignition reminder.

Q: How do I get rid of the key buzzer? A: Easiest way is to remove the ignition assembly. This is done by looking under the steering column and using an awl or something similar press the detent ball under the ignition. The assy. can only pull out when the key is in the ON position (not started.) You will see some brass contacts. Tape over them and the buzzers will stop. The contact you want to put tape on is the one in the hole the ignition assemble was removed from, not the ones on the part you just pulled out of the steering colum.

Good Hunting

As far as the open door buzzer goes I have found that a hammer works well. You follow how to get to the chime using a Haynes manual, remove it from the truck carefully (it is under the driver's side dash), and then you just beat the heck out of it with the hammer. Then you just carefully put it all back together!
