The annoying chime keeps dinging

[NCTyphoonKid]

In my new to me 2001 Tahoe the key chime keeps dinging when you're driving it has anyone else had this problem before if so how do I go about fixing it or disabling the damn chime its the most annoying thing. The 05 Silverado at my work does it too and I can not figure out why they keep dinging.

The issue resides in the ignition switch where the key sits. So either new switch OR pull the chime which should be a box (might be black) just to the right of the emergency brake pedal that is plugged into an area on the interior firewall. With that said, at some point the chime started coming through the speakers and I'm not sure when that started. If that's the case with this one then that has made the fix a bit more complicated.

Pretty sure 03+ chimes started in the speakers. Howevery old 2000 you could pull the key out while running lol and it never dinged unless the door was opened and truck was off

Then being an '01 I may be correct

Ok cool I will try to find the chime box this evening after I get home from work and disconnect it will let yall know what I find

That worked guys thanks for the info. Couple more questions the headlights don't turn on automatically and it has two sensors on top of the dash. The rear seatbelt on the passenger side won't let me pull it out so I'm going to attempt to fix it.

I have heard of the dash sensors going bad

I have too I had to put one in my 2000 but it only has 1 and this one has two and I'm confused to why it has two

 

[07Burb]

Two are always better than 1

This is true but I don't understand the point of two especially if they both go bad lol. Check out my thread btw put up a couple pics of it
