GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AN AIR
BAG REFER TO THE AIR BAG PORTION OF THIS
SECTION FOR STEERING WHEEL OR SWITCH RE-
MOVAL AND INSTALLATION PROCEDURES.
BUZZER SYSTEM
The seat belt warning system uses both visual and
audible signals. A combined seat belt and key warn-
ing buzzer with a red light on the instrument panel. The system will always illuminate the seat belt
warning lamp for four to eight seconds when the ig-
nition switch is turned to the ON position. Also, only
if the driver does not fasten his seat belt, the buzzer
will sound during the same time interval. Passenger
belts are not connected to the system. A timed buzzer-relay is used to operate the system
for the time period. It consists of a time delay mech-
anism and buzzer assembly. Only the driver's seat
belt buckle has a switch that is connected to the sys-
tem.
CHIME WARNING/REMINDER SYSTEM
The chime warning/reminder system is similar in
operation to the buzzer system except for a more
pleasant sounding tone. This chime type tone sounds
for all three warning/reminder conditions; namely
headlamps left on, keys left in ignition and fasten
seat belt.
TIMED BUZZER-RELAY TESTÐAP BODY
PREPARATION
(1) Remove timed buzzer-relay (Fig. 1).
(2) Connect one end of a jumper wire to a 12 volt
supply. (3) Connect a test lamp equipped with a number
194 lamp or equivalent, between terminal number 3
of relay and ground. (4) Ground terminals 2 and 5 of relay.
TEST
(1) Connect 12 volt jumper wire to terminal num-
ber 4 of timed buzzer-relay, look at test lamp and lis-
ten for buzzer. (2) Test lamp should come on and buzzer should
sound for four to eight seconds and then both should
go off; if not, replace timed buzzer-relay. (3) If operation is okay, check all wiring in vehicle
for opens, shorts, or poor connections.
SEAT BELT BUCKLE SWITCH TEST BUZZER
SYSTEM
Test timed buzzer-relay. If it checks OK, check the
wiring between seat belt buckle and ground. The
wire that goes to terminal 5 of relay from buckle
switch, refer to Fig. 2 and 3. If they check out okay,
replace buckle switch.
CHIME WARNING/REMINDER SYSTEM TEST
FASTEN SEAT BELTS
To test the fasten seat belts function, turn the ig-
nition switch to the ON position with the driver's
seat belt unbuckled. The seat belt warning lamp
should light for four to eight seconds and the tone
should sound three to five times.

HEADLAMPS LEFT ON
To test the headlamps left on function, turn head-
lamps on with drivers door open. Chime should
sound until headlamps are turned off or drivers door
is closed.
KEY LEFT IN IGNITION
To test the key left in ignition function, insert key
into the ignition and open drivers door. Chime
should sound until key is removed from ignition or
drivers door is closed.

WIRING DIAGRAM SHEETS AND INDEXES . . . 1
The wiring diagrams contain the latest information
at the time of publication. Throughout this group ref-
erences may be made to a particular vehicle by letter
or number designation. A chart showing the break-
down of these designations is included below.
SECONDARY IGNITION WIRING
Secondary ignition wiring is shown in Figures 1, 2,
3, 4, and 5. For information on distributor operation
or ignition systems refer to Group 8D Ignition Sys-
tems.
WIRING DIAGRAM SHEETS AND INDEXES
The diagrams are organized to show the basic ve-
hicle and all of its options. Add-on or non-factory op-
tions are not covered. The diagram pages are
identified by a sheet number which is located at the
lower right or left hand corner of each sheet. Page
numbers at the top of each page do not apply to
diagram sheets. Diagram sheets show all information relating to
the system. This includes feeds, grounds, switch in-
ternal circuity, connectors, splices, and pin identifica-
tion for controllers and modules.

In certain instances a wire may be referenced to
another sheet. When this happens, the wire will be
identified as to what it is ie: feed, ground, etc, and
where its going (Fig. 6). This has been done to aid in
the diagnosis of wiring and component problems.
The index used for the diagrams is located at the be-
ginning of the section. And is in alphabetical order to
identify the main system and all related components.
WIRE CODE IDENTIFICATION
Each wire shown in the diagrams contains a code
(Fig. 7) which identifies the main circuit, part of the
main circuit, gauge of wire, and color. The color is
shown as a two letter code which can be identified by
referring to the Wire Color Code Chart (Fig. 8). If
the wire has a tracer and it is a standard color an
asterisk will follow the main wire color. If the tracer
