of all the great things the 190's have one of the worst is that damn buzzing sound when the door is open. does anybody know of any ways to change the sound replace it with another device that is better on the ears?

I just opened up relay and de-soldered the buzzer from the board. Cuz honestly I know when my door is open lol, its not like the newer ones where if the door is not closed properly it keeps buzzing letting you know the door is not properly closed, once the little button is pushed it thinks the door is closed so i got rid of it all together.

Dont just unplug the whole module though, because then ur dome lights wont work lol.

The warning buzzer in my original W201 failed and I fell victim of headlight induced battery death. As a backup measure, I've installed the "Battery Brain" device that monitors battery load and electronically disconnects the battery if it senses that there is a circuit drain that will deplete the battery below its ability to start. It also makes it a snap to take the battery offline when working on the car.
