shalmaneser 26 Posted September 18, 2008 Hi, Was flicking through The '93/'94 205 brochure (which is fairly interesting actually...) and noticed that the 205 is supposed to have a 'lights on warning buzzer' here at the bottom of 'exterior'. It's not standard on all the models, but is on the Gti SDTD etc. Mines a late '89, Phase 1.5 and it doesn't make any noises when I open the door and leave the lights on - was it only introduced phase 2 or later, or should I have it, it'd be very useful! Normally not a problem cos I'm not a muppet, but I always drive with the lights on, and left them one once by accident when going to the shops. Was only gone for 10 minutes, so no worries, but I'd rather not have it happen again and have to beg a jump start! Any tips on what might be up, and good places to start looking? Ta, Adam.

welshpug 1,657 Posted September 18, 2008 pretty sure they're only fitted on phase 2 on cars, my 89 GTi hasn't got one, but my 93 309 does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimistdt 1 Posted September 18, 2008 (edited) I had this with mine and I was told that the buzzer is sited on the steering column under the plastic cowling. I wouldn't know whether its supposed to be on Ph1.5, but if it is not then you can make your own. TOPIC Jimi Edited September 18, 2008 by jimistdt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve@cornwall 100 Posted September 18, 2008 pretty sure they're only fitted on phase 2 on cars, my 89 GTi hasn't got one, but my 93 309 does. I've never had one on anything before "J" reg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baz 421 Posted September 19, 2008 (edited) They don't last forever, or sound terrible, or have been ripped out because they're annoying i can imagine!! They're a white thing similar to a relay iirc. Edited September 19, 2008 by Baz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shalmaneser 26 Posted September 20, 2008 Hmmm, looks like I'll just have to be more careful in future! Odd that they're not fitted as standard - I guess I just adds to the Ph1 /1.5 205's character! Wonder if they can be retro-fitted? I'll have to have a poke around in a phase 2 next time one turns up at the scrappy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
