96 Montero SR Headlight on buzzer?

**dave52355** · 05-08-2012, 03:35 AM

Hope this is an easy one. Is there a headlight on warning buzzer, and where is it located? The key buzzer works.

Thanks

X2???

I've drained my battery twice.... even my 87 4runner had a headlight buzzer....

We have a short mountain tunnel we pass thru. My wife always forgets to turn the lights off. I saw a post that indicated the 95 SR had one behind the instrument cluster, just wondered before I start ripping things apart.

I believe it does. I'll have to double check when I get home.

The buzzer is on my list of things to fix next week...

The previous owner had an after market alarm system installed. He said the thing kept locking the doors at the wrong times so he pulled the fuses. It seems to me that those alarms tie into the door switch, so maybe I need to find where he pulled the fuses from and pop them back in? Might be the fix. Funny the owners manual doesn't say anything about a headlight warning buzzer.

Does it say anything about the key buzzer?

Been trying to trace with the tech manual. Appears the light, and key buzzer comes off fuse 11. After brain storming we realized that the key warning buzzer does not work. Also on the same circuit is the seat belt warning ( not working ) The cig lighter is working so I'm thinking the fuse is good. I'll check it for sure as soon as my wife stops driving the truck.

Currently we're down to one vehicle and it does not sit still long.

It didn't seem clear from the other responses, so I thought I would chime in (haha). My '99 has both a headlight warning chime when the lights are left on and the key is not in the ignition and there is also a warning chime when you leave the key in the ignition and the door is open, HTH.

I disconnected the door/key chime but didn't disable the headlight warning chime.
