Interior - Double Chime For Key Warning Chime

87olds8
NUMBER: 88-T-14


DATE: December 11, 1987


SECTION: 8A
SUBJECT DOUBLE CHIME FOR KEY WARNING CHIME


MODELS/YEARS 1988 TOURING SEDAN

Initial production of the 1988 Touring Sedan used a wiring harness with the No. 80 key warning circuit to the warning chime module. This circuit is also part of the Y67 reminder option and therefore results in both modules emitting a chime warning.

The double chime will sound whenever the driver's door is opened with the key in the ignition lock and may be objectionable to the owner.

Figure 1:




The condition may be corrected by cutting the lt. green wire (No. 80 circuit) at the chime module connector cavity C1. This connector is located above the left sound absorber between the steering column and the ashtray housing. Tape the cut wire back to prevent a short to ground. Refer to Figure 1.

Recheck the key warning chime operation and reinstall all parts removed.
