Mk3 Mr2 Reverse Bleeper!

[JAY1]

Hi all

Can anyone help?

I have got a new mk3 mr2 and reverse gesr has a godamn annoying bleeper!!, just incase you forget you are going backwards!, I presume??.

Anyone have any ideas on how to turn it off?, I have had a look in the handbook but it says nothing about it, or which fuse its on??.

Gratefull of any help

all i did on my old mkII auto was cut the wire to buzzer and insulated it

Crude but it worked.

Easy...

Get your wire cutters out.

You need to lower the steering column on its height adjuster, and then pull off the instrument hood - the bit with the speedo and rev counter. Just grasp the cover either side of the rev counter and pull.

You then need to unscrew the instrument panel, theres one screw at top and 2 at bottom. This will then pull forward enough to get at the three electrical connectors.

On the biggest connector, the white one on the right hand side going into the instrument panel, theres a red wire with a blue stripe. Its on the top row, 3 in from the left hand side as you look at the connector. Cut it, tape the free ends with insulating tape, and reinstall everything.

No more bleeping. Of course there is now the chance that sitting at the lights in the not to distant future you will inadvertantly drop the clutch and end up going in the wrong direction.
