I took mine out. It was over the hump of the floor under the dash right at the bottom.

Would you mind taking a pic of exactly what you took out (or disabled)? Mine is chiming like crazy and won't shut off!

Thanks so much!

I dont have a camera here or I would. I just got under there and lisened for the noise. It was not had to find. When you find the NOISE (under the drivers side lower dash towards the middle) just simply unplug it.

I tried to find where the chime is coming from with no luck. Any help would truly be appreciated!

Thanks!

On my '96 when I disconnected it the windshield wipers quit also - that unit provides wiper ground also.

Why disable it? Just spray some WD40 in your door latch. That is your problem. It will work properly then.
