i just bought an 88 shadow 4 door turbo. and the door dinger thing keeps going and going...... it won't shut the hell up!!!! how do i stop this bastard? the fuse for it controls the stop lights too. so pulling the fuse is outa the ?. where in the hell is the dinger?

I think it is one of the relays on the fuse block, but I could be wrong. One should be for the horn, another for the blinkers, and the other for the buzzer IIRC. I could be a little off there though. It has been a while since I have had to trouble shoot that.

find the push in switch on the door jamb that pushes in when the door shuts and push it in by hand, i'm not sure what type of switch it is so you can either cut one wire or jump across those wires to stop it. Chances are its that switch thats causing the issue. If not I don't know what to tell you.

i'll try that fuse. and the door switch there are two per door on the front 2. one on the normal spot toward the front and the other on the b pillar.

i had my dome light stay on when the door was open, i dont know what was mis aligned, it just started doing it one day..,. where the switch pushed on the door, I put a few layers of double stick tape and that was just enough to make it loose contact when closed.
