Turn the radio up up louder (or get an amp)... you'll never hear the "door chime" again.... or you may never hear again.

I'll look into it, but I couldn't resist.

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.

Also, some models will let you just push the seatbelt latch and that will disable the buzzer until you turn off the truck. Once restarted you must do it again.

I think that might be what you're looking for. It's from the FAQ's in the Superduty Forum. Hope that helps.
