Thanks for the links, got some answers, but not all........

Re: speed warning buzzer
 

The white and orange speedwarning harness wires plug into the two terminals on the buzzer, I do not believe it matters which one goes where. The factory harness plug will not connect as the terminals are laid out differently, you remove the wires from the plastic plug and connect them individually to the terminals. Once the orange speedo needle overlaps the white needle, there is a small hair thin wire that it touches and this grounds the circuit and sets off the buzzer.

thanks, but the factory harness schematic shows a black wire as well, your saying its not needed?

Re: speed warning buzzer
 

The harness I use is aftermarket and only uses an orange and white wire. The only thing I can think of is the black wire is a ground…but the buzzer is already grounded when attached to the firewall :confused:

Thanks for the info. Sounds right with your description

jaros, 13 lines of signature and i have no idea what year your truck is
read my signature

i've never heard of a speed sensor on any classic vehicle
how do these work? i read a bunch of links in the search vettevet post and still have no idea
what did they come on? one link was in saudi arabia, i guess they're required on all vehicles

I have a 72 Jimmy, but I want to install a speed minder from a 67 68. Basically, you set the white arm , on the speed ometer, to what ever MPH you want to be alerted at, and a buzzer sounds when you hit that MPH

That's my problem, not alot of information out there on speed minders

Problem is, I've bought 2 buzzers, and both have tangs broken off, trying to find out function of these

Re: speed warning buzzer
 

I took the tangs off that were “dead” or served no purpose when voltage was applied. The two tangs are all that is needed. You connect your two wires and done. I tested these buzzers in the same manner as the truck buzzer I have.
