Let the buzzer buzz when the lights are on, yet not buzz just because the door is open. Can this be done?

It won't buzz with the door open if you take the key out will it?

 

I aslo want to know, I dont care about leaving the keys in there, but I dont want to leave the lights on!

 

nope, won't buzz if the key is out.
just looking to remind me if the lights are on.

 

Well, somone said the buzzer is located above the glove box.

I am looking at a 84-86 diagram. The buzzer has:

A brown wire-this is the outside marker lights,

A red/pink-this is the driver's door switch wire

A red/yellow-this is switched power from the fuse box

A black/pink- this wire goes up mysteriously into the turnsignal switch box diagram

A black-ground

A darkgreen/lightgreen-this goes to the seatbelt light in the dash

A brown/lightblue-this goes to the seatbelt buckle switch

A good guess would be to cut the black/pink wire that goes into the turnsignal switch. I can't figure out why it would go to the turnsignal switch, except that maybe it somehow goes to the little switch that detects the key is inserted.

 

I took apart the buzzer unit on my '86 XLT and it appears to be a separate buzzer for door/lights. Easy to kill just one of them. :-)

 

Hmmm.
Is the buzzer able to be "put back together"?

 

Yes indeedy. Both of my buzzers were non-operational, so I took it apart, fixed both, and put it back in.


Works perfectly. :-)

 

figures... If the light buzzer and the door buzzers were the two different ones, then no brainer.
But as fate would have it the same buzzer (on the left) screems with the lights on or the key-in door open. The other one is for the "fasten seat belt" warning.
