Key buzzer wont turn off
Hi,
something is wrong with my ignition lock, the horn relais buzzer starts buzzing when the door is open and the key is not inserted.
Some rattle at the lock helps. (oil in the lock did not help).
I think it will need mechanical repair will there be any surprises for me?
Do i need special tools? I have the non telescoping column, think that makes it a bit easyier.

sounds to me like the key warning buzzer switch has failed inside the column. You'll have to take the top of the column apart to get to it.
The buzzer was part of the horn relay out on the left inner fender on the 69 cars. I don't have much on the non tele cars but Jim Shea has a great article on how to remove and replace.

The following paper and the pic should help remove the buzzer switch.
