Chime Module Access 200 1991

I've seen several posts here and elsewhere referring to the door chime being stuck and constantly chiming while the key is in the ignition.

I haven't been able to find the cause of the chiming but am interested in accessing the "blue box" module. I can locate it, dislodge it from its steel spring tension holder, but it won't drop down far enough for me to inspect the leads.

Any suggestions on the best way to access this module?

Chime Module Access 200 1991

In my experience with the little blue box is that something goes wrong in side it. I could not fix it.

I did my work on it from the top after I pulled the instrument cluster. I fed the wires around to get it loose. I agree a real dork designer decided to mount it there. It resides in a better place to the side of the steering column unclipped now!

I suggest, when about to do this work, that you have a replacement to pop in and do not fool around thinking the problem is elsewhere.

Good luck, Phil

Sometimes it can be a bad ground in the system. I unplug them.
