Man, that think killed me for a year. Then I spent a while $25 and an autosparky pulled it out for me. You CAN'T turn it off, it's in the back of the speedo cluster, and it's a bastard to find...

its not hard to find man, its a metal? box on the back of the guage cluster, should have 2 wires going to it, one ground, one feed from the back of the speedo, on my celica and in my supra if you look at the conductive layout on the back of the cluster there was actually a line from the speedo, it says chime on it, may be the same on the aw11.

with these 2 line, all you do is either cut or unscrew the line from the back of the speedo

as mullet said, its a chime mounted on the back of the instrument cluster

[jezz]

Noice i will take you up on that.

While im up and chatty



i need to get an alarm for the ole Aw11 who would you suggest in canberra to buy off and install?

and yes this might be brought on by the whole stolen stitt wagon thing...

[wiso]

i have always gotten my systems through audiotech, they are pretty good, have good support and warrenty, every time i had an issue, i took it back, they fixed it no charge.

although with my supra i am not going an alarm, i have setup my own system on it to stop people taking her, they may break in, but she ain't going anywhere

[Koffee-Black]

do a mr bean, padlock the doors, and take the steering wheel out?

[wiso]

alarms may be used as a deterant by joyriders, but really alot of people these days know how to bypass them, i don't know if its worth having anymore. thats why i did mine and wraped it in the factory loom

[jezz]

Snap!

Sorry while smart thevies can by pass alarms and steal my car the insurance company is nice enough to reduce my premium if i get neat little flashy light and a box that goes Blip Blip etc etc

and Joel what ever you do don't use the "nobody can steal my car i have made it impossible....."

Australians like a challenge from what i've seen

ok back on subject what about the whole doing a darryl thing at braddon car stereo?
a little too off putting telling people you have "done a Darryl" ??

Now i'm going on and on put away your intellect fella's i'm going to bed.

and thanks for all the help again.........

[wiso]

ohh i never said its impossible to steal, it could be done, it will just take a while to work out, i have made it as nasty as possible for them hehe.

went to see them once, i thougth they were a bunch of f#$kers, they treaded me like an idiot, like i know nothing about cars, so i didn't bother

[jezz]

Ha my last 2c

One : think forklift and flat bed truck

Two : right thats Braddon CS out of the picture i hate that shit....

[wiso]

Ha my last 2c

One : think forklift and flat bed truck

yeah, thats usually only if a pro wants your car badly, and hey, there is no stopping that, you just hope you have insurance, most joy riders wouldn't bother if you have to go to that extent

[jezz]

Word brother that or trying to figure out a way to electrify the outside of ones car........

goodnight
