mm lets see, how many wish list buzzers does this make it now? 1. lights left on buzzer 2. key in left in ignition buzzer 3. low oil pressure buzzer 4. hand brake on buzzer
you might consider adding these also: 6. pop top not latched buzzer 7. extension cord still in electrical port buzzer 8. stall warning buzzer
maybe cognitive therapy would be easier :) alistair

It's not like the brakes are so monstrous that I'll notice on the first quarter-mile downhill away from the house, and my sitting position places the steering wheel right between the dash Brake light and my eyesballs. I'm gonna rig some alarm to sound when the Brake warning light is on and the transmission is in gear. Mellow Yellow has an automatic transmission, and the starter won't turn if the van is not in Park, so there's some wire that connects to a switch on the shift linkage or something. I can't find that wire in Bentleys. -- Rocky J Squirrel 84 Westfalia: Mellow Yellow ("The Electrical Banana") 74 Westrailia: (Ladybug Trailer company, San Juan Capistrano, Calif.) Bend, OR KG6RCR |
