chime module Reply #1 – March 03, 2014, 02:38:26 PM My warning chime module is also dead. I wasn't able to find a problem, even my other friends - electrical engineers - weren't. So what's the solution? Find another one. I grabbed one from Ford Scorpio. It has plenty other functions which may be usefull in the future, for example a power saving mode. Quote Selected

chime module Reply #3 – February 27, 2015, 11:52:30 PM Yep, the foam disintegrates over time. Very common on 80s and 90s Fords. The module is also what makes the "beeps" with the base and full digital clusters. Btw, the module in my 86 works like new, go figure! Quote Selected
