Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Disable Door Chime?

How do I disable the chime (2008 F150) that sounds when the key is in the ignition and the door is open? I'd like to keep the chime that sounds when the lights are left on and the door is open. Is it possible to accomplish both objectives?

And, on the off chance that someone from Ford ever looks at these forums: It would sure be nice if you designed the audible warnings with either a timer in the circuit (so it would sound for a few seconds and then stop); or, provide a cancel button for the chime (as is common in commercial and military aircraft).

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Disable The Seat Belt Ringer?

Can disable seat belt ringer? Today I got in my truck put it in reverse and sat for a moment and the damn ringer came on for the belt then drove down the drive way and it came on again. There was no need for the belt seeing that I was just moving trailers around the yard. I had a few Rangers and a Bronco that I was just able to reach down and pull the ringer out but I also had a Ranger that had the speaker build on to a circuit board I ended up putting bondo in that one made it real quite.

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Disable TPMS Light On Cluster?

My cluster went on the fritz and i bought a used one off ebay. (caused dome light to randomly come on and off as well as same thing with the brake light). Any ways I did some research and searching for compatibility in swapping clusters, my truck is an 06 f150 5.4 chrome package. The cluster I bought was from 07-08 but the look identical. Anyways I hook it up and everything works fine, all gauges warning lights everything. The only problem is that i have a tire pressure light on that flashes and stays steady.

My 06 wasn't even equipt with the tpms system, not sure how it even has power for the indicator light now. I know from what i been reading that its "illegal" / dealer wont turn it off, but for me its really doing no good just an annoyance since I don't have tpms. My question is is there a way on the cluster i can make it go out, i realize there is no bulb for the warning lights like in older vehicles or maybe a wire that feeds to it? Or possibly something i can do to the circuit board to make it stop? Looking for a cluster schematic?

Camry :: 2008 Hybrid - Auto Headlight Function Enable / Disable?

I have a 2008 Camry hybrid. It comes with the auto Headlight function where the car will automatic turn the headlight on/off at night and day time. But, but for some reason it doesn't work when I first got the car (pre-owned). I check all the wires/fuse, everything is good, but it just not working. The headlight and on/off switch itself works good. I just wonder if it has an option you can disable/enable it in the console or something else that I should look for?

Touareg :: No Option To Disable DRL On 2008 V6 - Resetting Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor?

I love my new ride too (08 V6). I hvae a couple of questions: How can you disable your DRL? I went to the convenience page and there's no option to disable DRL (day time running lights). How can I reset the tire pressure monitor sensor. I upgraded to the 19" wheels and my TPMS settings is for 17" wheels.

I looked all over the MFD and I don't have the option to reset them. But according to the manual that came with the car I should have that option. One thing I noticed their manual is not the greatest. By the way this is my first VW.

Golf/GTI VI :: 2010 - How To Disable The CEL Through VAG COM

I have a 2010 GTI which is running the stage 2 GIAC file and a catless downpipe. My CEL permanently remains on even after o2 spacers in the dp. I was told by the shop that replaced my clutch that this can be disabled through VAGCOM but would like to know from VW enthusiasts if this is true and if so how can this be done? The light sometimes shuts off for an hour or two and then comes right back on. I have cleared the code before using a scanner as I hope this is not what they are referring to.

Golf VI R :: ESC Is Switched On All The Time - How To Turn Off / Disable

So according to the manual that comes with the car, "ESC is switched on all the time." There are only instructions for turning off traction control.

Why Electronic Stability Control sucks: "Then there is the ESP. I don't even plan on bringing this car to the track until this is resolved. Last thing I need is the car thinking it needs to pull my throttle or apply the brakes because it thinks I'm 'out of control.' That is just an accident waiting to happen."

So how to turn off stability control yet? I'm kind of hoping APR (or any other tuner) would include some sort of flash with their tune that makes the 'ESP OFF' button also disable stability control (and not just traction control).

These guys disabled ESP by pulling a fuse. the only problem is that it also disables ABS and a couple lights : [URL] ....

Golf IV R32 :: Disable Clutch To Start Car Without Pedal

I DD the car. I'd like to be able to start the car without depressing the clutch, so i don't have to jump into the car while in my work gear to start it. Now to my knowledge, there are 2 clutch switches. One at top side near steering column/shat. And another near the firewall.

Correct me if I'm wrong, top side is for cruise and ecu. Bottom side towards firewall is for the starter and such.

My question, is there a way to fool bottom side clutch switch to thinking it is depressed so I am able to start the car without the pedal depressed.
