Topic: ANNOYING IGNITION BUZZER HELP!!!!!!!! :help:

[mikeaguirre922]

how do i disconnect it the correct way? (without cutting the wires) where is the buzzer? 

[rockymtn89]

The buzzer is a very small black box on the firewall area next to the steering column/gas pedal and under the dash. You can take the cover off and bend the tab away from the noisemaker (I know, technical term, right?). There is a thread somewhere on the internet with some pictures. Best I can find right now is: http://forum.ih8mud.com/79-95-toyota-truck-tech/241735-constant-door-chime.html

Good luck!

I just put a piece of duct tape over the pin on the door, solves it right away, no mods, no cutting

[yota4x4sc]

just take the door buttons out

[mikeaguirre922 [OP]]

i would take the button out but my light still works so im trying to keep it intact. thanks for the help

[yota4x4sc]

flick light on then off when u need it

[mikeaguirre922 [OP]]

true!!! didnt think of that

[locked 4x4]

Its convinient having the light come one when the door is opened.  The switch for mine is sometimes a pita to flick.  Likes to stick 

[mikeaguirre922 [OP]]

yea it truly is but i may just try what rockymtn89 posted on the thread. it looks simply as long as i don't screw it up

I bent it myself.  The box is dark gray.  It IS there - trust me on this.  You can hardly feel for it, it's in such a crappy place, but it's there.  IIRC, it slides off a little clip sideways.  Open up, bend the buzzer contact, reassemble.

1st, 2nd, 3rd gen or?  Disconnected many years ago on my 80, tried to on my 91 but it's in a box with other things on the passenger side kick panel and I couldn't get inside it in a way to isolate just that part from the rest of the box.

88 runner so 1st gen runner

nuff said..lol

mine was in the driver side kick panel, just a red wire, connected by a connector thing that just slid off. dont know if thats how it is with others..

[GloNDark]

So I guess just removing the box all together is a bad thing then?  I took mine out of my 88 truck last week when I was working on my radio and haven't missed it a bit. Hahaha

mines above my pedal assembly (86 runner) and i kept mine on im one of those who tends to forget to pull the keys out of the ignition.
