Anyone know where behind the dash this is?  I need to troubleshoot it.  I've got the center cluster out and the passenger side map pocket panel, but the main cluster is still in.  (Would love to not have to take that out). 
 
On a positive note I got my "door ajar" warning system working last night - no more black tape over that light!  But I still have a current leakage in the courtesy light circuit.

If memory serves me Dave, it's between the tach and the center cluster. Try listening for it and you may find it easier.

It's hung in the harness between the tach and speedo.You can take the top dashpad off, and get to it, iffin ya don't wanna pull the speedo cluster. That's how I do it, anyway. Approve

Thanks Joel and Greg.  Yeah, the buzzer is not sounding at all any more so I need to sort that out.  Need to find out if it's the switch in the column or the buzzer itself or some other problem.  Don't think it's causing my current drain, but I'm knee deep in 'lectricity issues right now so what's another one Cry
