[daddysLBZ]

Does anyone know for SURE how to stop only the door chime.I know it is w/radio and all,and IIRC if you remove the Bose the chime goes with it...I am gonna get a different head unit/stereo later and am keeping the Bose and subs in rear for now.Is there a wire to snip off somewhere,please tell me,that mutha gets on my nerves when I wannna work on the truck and listen to the radio too??

Do you have redundent controls? (steering wheel controls) if you do it is done in the DIC if you don't you got me man. Oh wait you just said you have the BOSE so you do have the Wheel Controls, I think you press the little (i) icon on the lower left and scan through and you will find it.

I just installed a stereo in mine and ordered an adapter from crutchfield that lets you keep all the chimes but you can turn them way down so they aren't so annoying. I like the low fuel alert but the door one drives you nuts. The adapter is a GMOS - 04. It works with several brands like my Pioneer. They make others that might work with your stereo.

the "door chime" you hear is far more than your typical piezoelectric buzzer for a N/C door contact circuit. The "chime" system is part of the Class II Data Bus system that sends data all over your vehicle. from SES to ABS to SRS to On-Star the system is all integrated into the "radio/head unit" for audible tones over your truck speakers. This system is not disable-able.

Call a local shop that installs stereos and ask them. There are multiple ways to do it, just they know the easiest.

THe only way i know is to cut the signal wire that goes to the door latch on the drivers door, your light will no longer come on when u open the door but heck, the switch is right there on the dash!

I have onstar and when I replaced my head unit I had to buy the onstar adapter and I turned my chimes all the way down. You can can barely here them.

357 mag will do it

Well you have a few options:

1.Aftermarket Radio
2.Roll down the windows and crank it up
3.Cut the trigger wire and lose your alarm
4.Do what I did and install speakers in the bed of the truck
5.Easiest would be carrying a screwdriver with you and pushing the latch in the door back making the truck think the door is closed.......just make sure you pull on the handle releasing the latch before you close the door

Do what the other guys said and as I have done.. put aftermarket in it and then turn the chimes alllll the way down....
