Default quick question.....

what is that thing called that when you leave your lights on and turn off your car it makes a buzzing noise, all the time i'm on the way to school or work, it's dark outside but by the time I get there it's sunny so I forget to turn them off, please help, I know what it is but don't know what it's called

You want it to not buzz at you, so that you can leave your lights on and let it drain the battery?

Good Idea!

He drives in the dark (lights on) and when he arrives at his destination its already light out and its hard to tell when your lights are still on. So he wants an indicator to remind him to turn off his lights so he doesnt leave them on accidently and drain the battery. A lot of new cars have this... there might be a way to do it

run a little siren or buzzer from radio shack inline with a relay attached to the lights wire, and have the relay switch closed (ground) when the door is opened (button @ door)

when the gound is completed, the buzzer will go off, since the lights are supplying power to it already
turn off the lights, power is cut, and the buzzer will shut off

(i need to do this on my pos beater before i hand it off soon - thanks for the idea )

yeah good ideas guys, but it was a specific name of it that you can buy it at radio shack, it just plugs in to your fuse box, damn it it was on here a long time ago and I never payed any attention to it
