as far as i know his has only to do with the IBCM and usually only happens when your car is cold and or freezes overnight.96 Camaro 3.8 A4 Basemodel: 8 mm wires, Shift Kit, Hollowed <br />Cat(o2 sims), RKSport exhaust, IAT 5.6K resistor, Home Depot CAI<br />>>>15.375 @ 89.27<<<NEW BEST TIME <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/552491\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/552491</a>

Mine has done it, but only because of a weak battery. Mine doesn't do it when the door chimes.1999 Silverado- Bagged, colormatched and rollin on stock chrome 16\'s<br />Make love not war, hell do both, get married

I recommend you do something better with your time. GM is not going to give a rats *** about any of this. You won't even have 10 people 'complaining' about this ticking noise..And since it's not a danger to anyone,,any priority what so ever to your future letter just disappeared.94 Camaro 3.4 A4 <br />T-Tops<br />In the process of an LS1 swap.

Well if not a recall at least a discount would be nice, if your car doesn't make this electrical ticking noise DO NOT POST. if it does tick like i have said before then post and tell how and under what circumstaces it ticks.96 Camaro 3.8 A4 Basemodel: 8 mm wires, Shift Kit, Hollowed <br />Cat(o2 sims), RKSport exhaust, IAT 5.6K resistor, Home Depot CAI<br />>>>15.375 @ 89.27<<<NEW BEST TIME <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/552491\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/552491</a>

yes, its only AN ELECTRICAL TICKING NOISE FROM IN THE CAR. im not talking about valves or injectors....
And the recall, although not dangerous, is a hassle if you get stranded somewhere in the cold, and your car wont start. its a PITA, so if we get enough people, its at least worth an email.

Sounds like you are saying it's not supposed to chime unless you have the key in the ignition.
Or are you saying that there is something wrong with your chime?
If it's the former, who are you referring to?
If it's the latter, there is nothing wrong with your chime, cuz mine don't chime unless the key is in there too.<hr></blockquote>
My Firebird has no "door ajar chime" without the key in the ignition. When I am cleaning the car interior I leave the doors open for hours with NO chime. Leave the key in the ignition and it chimes until I pull the key (and it stops) or shut the door.Robert - owner www.FirebirdV6.com/CamaroV6.com

duh...it's only supposed to chime when it's in to remind you to take your keys with you when you leave the car.
and as for this being a 96 only problem....guess again
when it gets cold like this, your battery isn't as efficient and has trouble getting the car started. this happened to me last winter and went away as soon as it started to warm, and not freeze every night. it's doing it again this winter...mine will completely turn off if it doesn't crank on the first try.... everything dies, no power whatsoever... i only get power back if i pull the key out and try again...it then will maybe start, and resets the trip odometer....
maybe mine is a VATS problem...or something with my ghetto ground...but it only happens when it's cold. and i'm a 981998 Chevrolet Camaro L36 M5<br />1982 Toyota Celica Supra 7MGTE project car - FOR SALE<br /><br />\"I find the most sensual part of the woman is the boobies.\" - Zap Brannigan

this has nothing to do with your battery!!! my battery is new and it still does it. my car fires right up after the ticking stops. not slow cranking either. my door ajar bell sound when the "door is ajar" All im talking about is the clicking behind the glovebox in the IBCM.96 Camaro 3.8 A4 Basemodel: 8 mm wires, Shift Kit, Hollowed <br />Cat(o2 sims), RKSport exhaust, IAT 5.6K resistor, Home Depot CAI<br />>>>15.375 @ 89.27<<<NEW BEST TIME <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/552491\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/552491</a>
