Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Chime Module
The chime module plugs into the back of the instrument panel junction block. Remove access panel on driver's side of instrument panel junction block. Check the condition of the pins on the chime module and the junction block. Straighten any bent pins. The chime module is not repairable. If the other components of the system operate normally install a new chime module. If the problem is corrected re-install the old chime module to verify the problem is in the chime module.
