key reminder

i read on the superduty forum that it is possible to disable the key in igintion reminder by cutting one particular wire on the ignition. has anyone done this on a ranger? i would really like to sit in my truck with the door open without that bleeping thing making noise. ive got an 01 ranger if it makes any difference. thanks

Wouldn't it be easier just to pull the key out of the switch when your setting in it? Thats a pretty new truck to be cutting wires in, who knows what else it could screw up. We'll see if anyone has an idea, cause I sure don't.
