There is a speaker in the BCM. If you want to mute the thing entirely, you can certainly open it up and unplug it.

I was going to post the wire to disconnect to mute the driver's door, but if you do that, your security system/keyless entry will not work properly. Nor will your door ajar indicators.

The alternative is to install a NC relay in series with the speaker, and drive it with the driver's door signal, so it mutes with the driver's door only. Any interest?

Would disabling the chime affect the alarm? If the car doesnt know if the door is open and you trick it to think its closed then if the doors is opened the alarm wouldnt go off correct? I hate my chimes but dont want to make an entry point vulnerable. I dont have a factory alarm, not sure if it matters but I had the Clifford 2-way transponder system put in. Now that I look at previous post I think my question has been answered. Sorry guys, no coffee yet LOL
