Ignition chime issue
Good day everyone,
We have a 2000 automatic coupe and the key warning chime isn't behaving the way the owners manual says it should.
With the key in the ignition, and the driver's door open, and the key in the OFF position, it chimes as it should.
When you move the key to the ACC position, the chime STOPS. The owners manual says it should still be on.
The car has had two column lock services done years ago. Specifically, it had the 89023816 harness K installed, as well as an ECM flash done.
I'm wondering if any of you with automatics AND having had the column lock recall done can check this behavior for me with YOUR car. Put the key in, turn it to ACC, and see if the chime still happens with the door open.
Thanks,
Chris

OK, so here's how it went: Open driver's door, insert key and fast chime. Turn key to ACC, slow chime, "door ajar" and chime stops in about 10 seconds. The red seat belt indicator light is lit. Connect seat belt and the indicator light goes off, still no chime. "door ajar" still indicated... No chiming. Turn key to off position - door still open - fast chime. Remove key and chime stops... Anything else you want me to try let me know...
