Default door chime.

anyone know why my door chime continues to go off even when all of the doors are closed. or just how to disconnect it so that it doesn't chime anymore?

i know the chime is triggered by the key in the ignition

but i dont know why it stays on with the doors closed, but if you pull the key it should stop

haha, sorry for stating the obvious

do you have a service manual for your car?

whatever sensor tells the chime to stop after the car has been turned on must be broken, or it could be a wierd electrical problem.

i dont know if there is a simple fix, sorry
