GMC headlight buzzer solved

Postby del » Wed Sep 12, 2007 6:38 pm

I have a 1997 GMC half ton PU. Trouble is if I leave the lights on and turn off the key, silence, no buzzer. Did the Canadian models have a buzzer? Where do I find the unplugged buzzer?

Hey Del, Usually headlamp and seatbelt warning buzzers are located left side under dash just above brake pedal or kick panel area. Could be a small black or white box if no wires are unplugged look for a little box that is perforated (most are) with holes. If you cant locate anything that could be identified as this, Your local dealer could look up the part# and show you what the part looks like so you will know what you are looking for. good luck!
Hope this helps out! :roll:

Someone else built a teardrop shaped cargo trailer for their motorcycle, on the 40" frame, but that is the only other one I know of.

That buzzer should be the same one the key uses and is a box about 1/2 in. thick and about 1 1/2 inches square. It is usually plugged into the fuse block that is above your left foot. It could be bloe, grey or black. When you unplug it it usually has 5 to 6 electrical spades on it. They do wear out.
Good luck.

Found it. Went to the dealer and they wanted $33 dollars for it. Next I went to a junk yard that tends to have late models (the 90s are late model here in Yakivegas). Found one in a s-10, took it to the counter, and the man said I could have it, no charge. Came home and tried it, success.

thanks to all del
