i have an 86 rx7 turbo and when u reach 110kmh the car produces and annoying beep sound. does anyone know how to turn it off.

Cwaters

Is it the same noise as the buzzer of doom (redline/oil/coolant)? or is it more like a beep beep beep?

either powersteering error or u are forgeting to shift

everything else should show u on idiot lights

The beeping noise means that its a Jap import.

I just imported an Rx7 Convertible 1989 with turbo and nice mags etc, and it makes that annoying beep beep beep every time I go over 110.

It drives me mad!

I assume its a buzzer to let you know that you are at the speed limit (I assume the highest speed limit in Japan is 100 kmph). So when it beeps, go faster.

NZConvertible

All cars sold in Japan have a 105km/h beeper.

but is there anyway to turn it off or disconnect it. because its so bloody annoying when ur on a cruze and ur doing around 150km/h on quite roads.

I'm pretty sure there is a screw in the back of the gauge cluster to remove. it'll be near the 180km/h max limit one to also remove

Adam

your lucky mine beeps every time i make a right turn. same sounds as the redline buzzer

Icemark

Just remove the screw on the back of the cluster labled 120K or 180K (I don't remeber off the top of my head).

No sense removing the buzzer itself

You have bigger problems than a speed buzzer. If it does it on a turn watch the idiot lights next time. It is either going to be the "Add Coolant" buzzer or the "Check Engine Oil" buzzer.

NZConvertible

The screw labeled "180" is the 180km/h speed limiter and the other one should be the speed alarm. Remove them both...

you are experiencing a condition called low oil. you'd better check and fill it before you have none left. the sensor is pretty low in the oil pan, so when u hear it... you're VERY VERY low on oil

Adam

i just checked the oil like a week ago. strange ill look agian. didnt see no Light though on my panel

I hear a beep in my car all the time. I'll be driving and its quiet then out of nowhere, I can even be stopped at a red light, a beep starts up......beeep.......beeep.....beeeep.....it drives me nuts, i dont know what it is, my oil is fine, and my coolant is fine, my gas is fine.....i just dont know....if I stop for a minute at the gas station and turn off my car the beep stops, and i turn the car on and its gone, I drive for like 5 minutes and there it is again, lol any of u know about that? and how to get rid of it?

Of course you can disable it. Find the little piezio speaker thats producing the beep and cut one of the wires on it.

The power steering computer has it's own error code system which will emit gentle beeps (versus louder the redline, LOW COOLANT, LOW OIL buzzer) when it encounters a problem with the power steering system.
1-beep, pause, repeat - in case abnormality of speed sensor signal:
In case broken wires or short circuits occur to sensors or harnesses, the buzzer sounds 60-seconds after the engine speed signal of 2200 rpm continues for 18-seconds.
2-beeps, pause, repeat - in case abnormality of engine speed signal:
The buzzer sounds when the vehicle speed signal is input and no engine speed signal is input (short circuit, broken wire, etc.)
3-beeps, pause, repeat - in case abnormality of stepping motor signal:
The buzzer sounds when there are broken wires or short circuits in coils or harnesses.
4-beeps, pause, repeat - in case abnormality of the power steering microcomputer:
The buzzer sounds when there are circuit troubles other than with the micro computer.
5-beeps, pause, repeat - in case abnormality of steering sensor signal:
The buzzer sounds 60-seconds after broken wire or short circuit occurs to sensors or harnesses when the vehicle speed is above 40Km/h (25 mph).
Continuous beep - in case abnormality of the power steering microcomputer:
The buzzer sounds if the microcomputer becomes abnormal and cannot control the system.

Mine is that first one there.......how do I exactly fix that the right way, I dontw anna just got the wires on the lil speakers....

SureShot

The speed sensor signal sender is in the dash speedometer.
Check it's connector & solder joints.
Check the connector at the steering control box above the drivers left knee.

*blinks* How can you not know your oil level? I check it every time I get gas, and usually sometime in between when I'm waiting for people... the only way I'd ever have to deal with the low oil level buzzer is if I had a severe leak somewhere.

That's interesting that there's a speed limit buzzer in some cars. I suppose it's a good way to cut down excessive speeding, at least for people who don't have the knowhow to disable it.
