Beep beep beep.....

Can anyone tell me where the chime is located that bangs off when you open
the driver's door with the key in?

Before I rip out the dash panel and machine-gun every relay and connector I
can see.

You may assume I am a little fed up with this feature.

You can unplug it

It is the plug that is cabletied to the ignition barrel.

But don't moan when some scum bag jumps in a steals your disco with the
keys in the ignition :-)

obviously they changed it. Ours is an early "300", 95 model, and goes
beep-beep-beep-beep if you open the door with the lights on, but nothing
about the key.

The 1991 disco didn't do any of 'em, so you could leave the lights on.

Great. And no, I won't complain if it's nicked. I never leave the keys in
if I'm out and about. I just like the option to leave the keys in and the
door open when I am at home without Nanny bleating about how thoughtless I
am. The lights-on beep is quieter, lighter and just-about bearable, as I
have been known to leave the lights on while parking.

Thanks.
