Want to disconnect door chime
#1

This was posted previously here and Dennis suggested tripping the door latch (and remembering to open it before closing the door) while the door is open. I would like to know if the latch trips a switch in the door, can this be disconnected there?

There is a switch on the latch in the door, but if you unhook it, the door dinger won't ding but the interior lights won't light when the door opens. I think if you find the dinger & unhook there, the interior lights won't work either.

I have looked under the dash for hours and can't locate the chime or the wire going to it. I tried checking the wires coming from the door itself but there are about thirty of them and I couldnot get to all of them to narrow it to the one. I was hoping someone might be able to give me an idea as to what the chime itself looks like so I know where to point the barrel of my shotgun. That thing drives me nuts trying to listen to the radio with the doors open. Thanks for the info.

Hey B Clark,
Sorry to tell you after you looked for hrs and hrs put, your not going to find a chime under the dash. Its made in the GEM module pritty much the brain box for all intieor controls, no GEM no 4x4, no GEM no radio, no GEM no instrment cluster you get the pic. Ford has had this sence 97. We've tried to disconect the chime many times with no luck, so if you find a way the do it w/o losing any other controls(int. lights etc.) please let me know.

My dealer disconnected mine by disassembling the ignition and removing the switch contacts. They charged me for .3 hours. Works well!
