Nissan Repair: 1986 Sentra chime goes on at random, nissan cars, continuous minutes


Question
I want to disconnect the chime relay. It goes on at random and sticks for various lengths of time. It was stuck for 20 continuous minutes today. Where is it located? What does it look like? I have some leaking under the passenger side of the dash, perhaps, something's shorting under there.

Answer
Bob,

The module is under the dash.  It is a small box the size of a package of cigarettes.  listen for the ding and feel for the box.  Somply unplug the box.  You migth end up wiring past it to feed power to the radio as some Nissan cars use this to keep people from removing the box.  Leaking under the passenger side of the dash would indicate a plugged drain or perhaps a defective and leaking heater core.  Check your antifreeze level and email me back with what you find.
