Door chime hate
Sorry if this has been discussed, I'm not on the 99-06 forums very often.
We are original owners of an otherwise AWESOME 2003 Yukon XL 2500 with 8.1/4L85E/4.10 and a Bose audio system. Is there any way to disable that AWFUL door/key chime? You can't even look at this truck without that obnoxious DING DING DING!! Can't take it any more. Please help! |

Re: Door chime hate
I don't know of anyway to disable it unless you remove the stock radio and install a aftermarket head unit. Just don't install the module that some install kits include for the chime stuff. Lol my 96 has the annoying constant buzzing, you got it easy!!

Re: Door chime hate
Are you talking about that little fan above your head? Temp sensor or whatever it is. Yeah, my 06 buzzes up there too and i just keep the radio volume up enough to cover it.

Re: Door chime hate
On a superduty I had someone had taken the steering column cover off and removed the little wire and plastic/brass piece that sensed the key, it never dinged unless you opened the door with the lights on and ignition off, which I really appreciated.

Re: Door chime hate
You have to remember that the PK3 ignition system has to sense the key and be able to retrieve the key code for startup.

Re: Door chime hate
If you have access to a tech 2 you can go in and change the chime level. I can't remember if it can be turned off completely though. But like I said above its in the radio.
