Hello, all! Just got my first REAL truck last week and I'm happy as a kid at Christmas. It's a '95 F150 with the 4.9L I6. Former state of Ohio truck, but in real good shape. No real problems or serious technical questions yet, but I do have one goofy request for info... I keep leaving my lights on, and a warning buzzer would be sweet! I found the key-in-ign. buzzer unplugged so I fixed that, but still no "lights are on" buzz. Does my truck have one, and where is it? I can't seem to find anything under the dash other than the one i plugged in. Any help is always appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

PS: I'm a trailer mechanic, and I specialize in tow packages for trucks, both aftermarket and OEM. so if you have any questions about these, holler at me, because I'm considered a guru!

 

well i have the 96 5.0 but when i leave my lights on nothing buzz if that helps im pretty sure it doesnt have one

 

lol if my 88 buzzes when my lights are left on then you guys newer ones must...

but i have a lariat and idk if that makes a difference

 

It is the same buzzer as the key in the ignition and will only make noise when the drivers door is opened with the lights on.

 

Well, if you're right, then mine must be broken, 'cuz I've tried to make it buzz. I know this sounds like a trivial problem, but I keep leaving the lights on and sooner or later i'm gonna get stuck begging for a jump. Maybe it's the "new truck" high...

 

Also check make sure someone did not remove the power lines for the seat belt reminder as it uses the same buzzer also, you can however remove the lines at the bottom of the driver seat belt to kill the buzzer without disabling the key of headlight buzzer.

 

my truck buzzes when i turn the key on.... no buzz when i leave the lights on.... i have a 1996 F150 XL

 

mine buzzes and it a 92' havent really noticed it it does it with the door opened or closed, but i'm going to pay attention now, you have sparked my intrest, lol

 

these trucks don't have a seatbelt reminder buzzer. The buzzer is the one and the same as the key in ignition buzzer as previously stated. Here's an aftermarket unit.
