    headlights on chime

    so after i had all my alternator issues, my headlights on chime never worked properly.. just not getting around to troubleshooting.. anyone dealt in this area before? i get no sound from it at all, and just realized that when i get into the vehicle and put the key in, i get no sound either.. anyone ever tried to test the buzzer? i have mine out of the VX and have arrived at a few conclusions

    the pin order goes

    3456
    1 2

    there should be a steady buzz when the combination is
    1 ground
    2 ground
    3 power
    4 open
    5 open
    6 open

    but i tried hooking it up to a battery in that combination and no sound.. havent had a chance to test the wiring harness yet.. but anyone have any tips for this?

    Is time to call merlin

    I do believe the chime from the rodeos has to be the same.
    Just hit any junk yark with any 98/02 stripped rodeos/passport to match them & figure out if the pin configuration is the same.

    Did you had in there a nuclear reactor as a alternator ? LOL
    Dakar was just the begining.

    heh it would seem so.. it was a 150 amp alternator and the regulator fried so it was putting 17-19 volts through my system.. it fried my rear camera, both headlights, some of the alternator wiring, a few fuses, my battery and power mirrors... only thing left to fix now is this headlight chime


    nobody i talked to has a listing for it on the VX... i did find the listing for it on the trooper but its listed as a dealer only item.. guess ill be calling merlin.. i just want to make sure that this is actually the part thats gone bad before i spend the money on a new one.. just the A/C relay was like 30 bucks im a little afraid of how much this little thing will cost (and trying to decide if its worth even replacing)

    Check this guys from north bergen in NJ,he's stripping a friend's VX ( london1900 ) he can probably pull the chime for you.

    When i think about all what that alternator did to your horse i just have to say you were very lucky the VX didn't catch up on fire eric.
