while replaced my clutch i disconnected the connectors to drop the tranny, after i put everything back the redline buzzer now goes off when i hit 5k.. engine still revs to 7k just fine but drives me nuts for the last 2k rpm.especially when there are girls in the car (they think the engine is gonna pop out of the hoodor something)..i know the connection is not right somewhere but cant seem to find anything in the FSM addressing this problem....


thx

i kind of had the same problem. mine was while i was having electrical problems with my alternator(s) and batteries. now that i fixed it it goes off at 6900.

Well that's better than it beeping almost constantly when your just driving normal like mine.Where is this ******* buzzer located at?

torean

behind the guages.....but why would u want to get rid of the whiney buzzer?..

Remember, that buzzer has three very important functions:

Over-rev warning, low coolant, and low oil.

If you disconnect it, you'll feel like an *** when your engine overheats.

The coolant buzzer is a real drag because it can be a bugger to get the air out of the system.

yeah i would run down the prob in the connection/wiring and electrical system, insted of disconecting the entire warning buzzer

86project

yeah i would first try to run down the electrical/conection problem before thinking of disconecting the warning buzzer

if its happening at 5000 rpm, you might also wanna check your coolant system for air. just a hunch but it may be causing premature or too much cavitation, in turn, makeing the buzzer howl.

great point rotoboy20!!!! i did not even think about that

yeah my s5 used to have that problem when id go past 6k and my redline is 8k. make sure it has all the coolent it can take and make sure theres plenty of oil. i fixed the problem when i changed my oil and found less than 5 quarts in it when it takes 6 quarts...stupid previous owner done got cheap on me.

im not sure if the S4 tanny's have the same wiring as S5 but there are 4 wires down there that you can unplug. did you connect them in the right order i just dropped my tranny but before i took off the wires i marked them first.

torean

yeah i woulda marked it..but i didnt have a pen around....coolant seems fine.....

86project

then i would say it is your tranny connections

torean

thats what i think too.....but which is suppose to connec to which....2 plugs have the same type connector and 2 are just regluar wires...i dont know if i connected them both wrong or only one of them.....
