seriously, this is something I have been meaning to investigate for years... it shit's me to tears!

If anyone has found the speaker, and put a screw driver through it, please let me know so I can do the same! :rofl:

I have to looked for this stupid speaker. I have given up looking now, and when i work on the car i just unscrew the switch that knows when the doors are shut. If u unscrew that and disconnet the wires the beeping stops. YAY

the speaker sits directly infront of where your left knee is when your sitting in the drivers seat. Just take the bottom plastic panel off and you will find the speaker attatched to the back. disconnect the wiring from the speaker and enjoy the silence! (i am assuming R32)

spot on.

i was working on the car a couple weeks back and i saw the wire unplugged, so i plugged it in and now it beeps when i leave the lights on.

never knew of it!

I said something about this somewhere, apparently if you get rid of it you lose your demisters, hence making your car illegal? Or even more illegal than it already is :rofl:

incorrect.

my demisters have always worked, with or without the beeping.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.

      So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.

      Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on

      Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
