hey i've left my headlights on after turning my car off about 5 times so far and one time was for a couple hours n my batt was dead.. i have a 94 civic ex ... and when the lights are left on there's no chime or beep to let me know i've done so ... i can't remember all the time to turn them off ... is there supposed to be a chime btu maybe a fuse is blown ? if not is it possible to install one? i've searched abotu 6-7 different variations of the words "headlight chime, light beep, light alert" etc. but i came up with nothing. any info or links would be much appreciated. thank you.

 

I feel your pain On the bright side, it lets you know when you leave your keys in the ignition.

 

lolol i know that but ive never left my keys in there :-\ lol it would be nice if it would beep like that when my headlights were on n the car was off ... any ideas about crossing wires? or summin?

 

No, I don't know. But I'll keep this bumped for you since you got me all interested now.

My mom's 95 did not have a chime or buzzer. I think they didn't come with them until 96. I wired one up for her, but I'm having trouble remembering how now. I'll think on it a bit, and post back later...

i have always wanted to do this and i think i will when i get to radio shack..

 

I thought I was being original when I wired my tach that way

 

i bought this ...
http://www.radioshack.com/prod...2D055


i tried connecting the black wire to different fuses like the wiper/washer ... front right (power window), and even the power door lock (all 20As) and i put the red wire on left / right high and low beams ... i still got no buzz ... the buzzer works because i grounded the black wire to some metal and then when the car was off id put the red wire on the headlight fuse n it would buzz ... i don't understand the logic behind fuses i've been reading up on them and electrical stuff ... seems like i need a relay that checks to see if headlight and ( something else that's on when the car's off ) if it is then it sends power to the buzzer ... is that what a relay does? is that what i need? im kinda desperate .. i had to push start my car down my driveway today because while trying to install the buzzer i left my lights on n went in to check the forums to see if i could find any help .. when i came out my batt was dead lol ... (i was inside my house for about 30-40 mins) any help would be MUCH appreciated! thanx o yea i also bought a voltage tester to see what fuses were on n off when the car was on n off ... it only cost about 6 bucks from radio shack so i didn't feel like it was a big purchase but something very handy .... please help guys thanx

 

Yo, the black wire goes to wiper fuse 20amp
and the Red goes to tail lamp--10amp

 

ok im going to try that right now updates in about 5 mins

 

yay! works now! omg so simple thanx every1 for the time n patience im such a no0b lol

 

yup that car doesnt have one stock you have to make one...lol

 

Yep, hate the lack of the warning buzzer. I've only killed my battery once.

Think I'll do this tomorrow.

 

walmart also sells headlight warning beepers also

 

i like the $3.29 radio shack install ... it was fun n i learned some stuff hehe oh yeah did i mention it was $3.29 including tax lol ill take pics of it tomorrow with my digi cam too dark now i think

I got my buzzer from wal mart for less than a dollar and installed it to the light fuse and the rest was history.

 

I put in the radio shack buzzer a couple months ago. It already saved me one dead battery.Works great

 

Damn wish i had known about this sooner..... My battery died a couple of months ago because i would leave the light on...

 

Thanks for sharing

I've killed one battery already, this shalt surely save the one I haveth now!!
