Ignition switch "warning" ? (What is it?)

[como]

Can somebody tell me what the heck the "warning" is? Horn, perhaps?

Nevermind, its the buzzer that engages when you turn the key. I had mine unhooked anyhow.

if your talking about that rediculous buzzer near the driver side seatbelt, i hope everyone on the planet has. that noise is stupid annoying and you can think of removing that thing as weight reduction! ^_^

i like it mmmhm right......where do you unhook that at?

[como]

those two connectors (pictured) come out of the back of your ignition switch (key)

The buzzer itself sits under the trim, about lower-rib height (sitting) on the left side of the car behind the door.

i ripped the wire out of the buzzer itself. lol. not the right way, but it worked ok.

That was my solution, too. The only problem I have now is it's easy to leave the running lights on.
I seem to recall the car being smart and cutting the lights when you opened the door if the car was off, but now it doesn't seem to.

Seeing as how the buzzer had like 8+ wires going into it, I'm thinking that may be related.

It is. I opted to leave the buzzer as is and so my lights do turn off when the doors open if I leave the lights on with ignition off .... Also I do not accidentally lock/leave my keys in the car. One less thing to remember. Do I like the noise? No but it is a bit nostalgic in a pleasantly irritating kind of way.... more irritating is leaving lights on or locking my keys in the car.

i ripped the wire out of the speaker in the buzzer and my lights still turn off with the ignition off when i open the door ::sticks out tongue::

Then you disabled it the right way... most people hack it out not knowing all those wires serve more than one function.

good plan. When I fix my headlights....

not really. honest to god, i pulled one wire and it went out. lucky guess. what are the odds of that?
