Headlight Buzzer
« on: July 24, 2007, 02:46:30 pm »
I know I know who wants them anyways.Mine is not working .A couple of times I leave for work and need lights but when i get to work I forget they are on cuz it is light out by then and my battery is dead when i come out.Does anybody know where that buzzer is so maybe i could pinpoint why it doesnt work?

I have had at least 2 dozen of these trucks over the years and none of them had a head light buzzer, or one that worked. Maybe it plain doesn't have one?

I have never owned a 73 - 87 with one. Have never found one while stripping them either.

You can go to Radio Shack and buy a cheap buzzer and wire it in. Wire it into the headlight circuit for power and ground wire to the door jam switch so that if lights are on buzzer sounds when you open the door.

WalMart has one that plugs into the fuse panel by 2 short wires and has a fairly loud buzzard for a few dollars. I put one in my mom's old 84 camaro because it didn't have one and her battery lay dead quite often. I got tired of getting called on a daily basis to jump her off.

Headlight buzzers don't exist on these trucks.

RadioShack has them for about $6 each.  One tab slips into the fuse, and another is a ground.  5 minutes tops.

Did this last month to my Cruiser since the Mrs tends to leave lights on!
