    Ron it's normally within about 3' of the ignition switch. Quarter-size buzzer with a purple wire and a tan w/blue stripe wire.

    Note that if you have recently operated the trim, you will likely NOT receive a warning beep when key is turned on. This is because the PCM was awakened by the TRIM.

    After sitting for 15+ minutes it should work again (normal test beep) as long as you don't hit trim.

    Thanks Don, actually never had one fail, but the wiring has been messed with by two folks, I guess I am going to have to correct the mess over the winter, and man is it a mess, but in mean time I will fix alarm. Thanks again
