GCC spec Pajeros speed alarm delete

[fjprm]

Hello,

I've posted earlier a message looking for info about disabling the speed chime alarm that pops on every GCC spec'd cars every time you reach 120Kph.

After a bit of research, I've been able to find some electrical schemes for my car on the "out-club.ru" site and after interpreting the right one it was a matter of time until the chime was disabled.

All it took was disconnect a small jumper connector located under the dash, near to the OBD connector.
Pls note that my car is LWB 2009MY 3.0 V6 petrol LHD, but I think this fix will work on all Gen 4 GCC pajeros.

The only "side-effect" is that I lost the "Forgotten Key prevention Function" (ie: a buzz when the driver door is opened with the key on the ignition switch) which is common with the speed chime function on GCC.

I'm a happy camper now...

I post below some schemes and pictures to help those who may have a similar version of the pajero.

I assume you mean 3.2?
I think you may be talking about the speed warning tone from the MMCS2 (sat nav.) when you approach some tight corners? If so, my MMCS2 did this until I had my free map upgrade to version 2014A - seems to be gone now.

That chime is still there on my 2014A updated MMCS. You are just not going fast enough. It is speed dependent. On a particular tight right bend (northern superway right turn onto Salisbury hwy) doing 90 will chime once and will stop once I slow down. If I persist doing 90, it will chime two more times.

It is 3.8 GCC specs petrol
A very annoying alarm is added which goes on above 120km/hr

I removed the jumper but the alarm is still there
Please anyone knows how to get rid of this ???

I was referring to the non GCC spec. For GCC spec, finf the buzzer and either cut it or muffle it or put an inline resistor to reduce the voltage or better yet, cut the wire and route to dash switch to enable turning it on/off.

What country you driving it in?

What country you driving it in?

Qatar

I was able to locate the buzzer (inside a blue plastic box)
Its located behind the fuse box
I don't seem to find the wire as there are many wires in that area
Which wire is it please?

Updated location from Aus to Qatar

That is the ETACS ECU (see first pic of first post above). If you are good with electronics then you can try opening it up and remove the buzzer, otherwise, you will just have to muffle it.

Interestingly, my old car has a user adjustable speed alert. Can the GCC one be adjusted? Does it appear in the trip computer display or the console display?

It does not appear anywhere i guess its not adjustable in GCC
Thnx

Buy an etacs ecu from an Aust model and problem gone

Or find someone with an mutt3 with sws monitor to access Etacs ecu and disable
