I myself HATE listening to "DING DING DING DING DING" when my door is open, is there anyway to disconnect it? In my 2003 Hyundai Elantra it was very simple, just unplug it, there was a DIY posted on that forum with pics to help you find the unit.........anyone know where ours is?

Unplugging the sensor button thing would work, but it's not the best way to do it. The car will believe your doors will always be closed and the light in the dash showing that doors are openned will never turn on.

Even worst would be for people who have alarm systems in their cars. Ususally, the alarm system is wired to detect if a door is openned. If you remove unplug the sensor button thing as mentionned, you will loose a very nice function of your alarm.

Maybe some people don't mind doing it this way, but it's not such a good idea.

The best way is to do it the harder way (but it's still very easy) by unplugging the connector next to the ignition switch that goes to the dinger.

Your completely right. I didn't even think about the whole alarm thing. My bad. But it does stop the dinging. wink.gif
