I have people following me around with an EMP gun. When they overload my system my dash beeper begins to sound incessantly. I have installed protection, so when I disconnect the battery, the extra charge drains out of the engine and I'm good to drive until it happens again.

What I want to do is disconnect the dash beeper ~ I'll keep an eye out myself for hazard lights.

Is there an exposed wire somewhere I can pull to eliminate that crazy-making sound?

I'm sorry but that isn't a removable part, it is built inside of the instrument cluster.

Sorry it isn't an easy thing to do. At least yours has a beeper instead of being integrated with the audio equipment. Perhaps you should take down the info on the people with the EMP device and report them to the police? They could do serious damage or worse if they can disable your vehicle and have other intentions.

I've been trying to alert the police about them over the last five years and 15,000 miles ~ and they've already done outrageous damage and are preparing to do much more.

I believe at this point it's gone past the police. The feds are involved, and the crime network just crossed the line to INTERPOL territory. Hopefully the forces of order haven't caught on too late. Time will tell.

Hey, I really appreciate you reaching back. I'll recommend you to anyone I talk to. Have a great evening.
