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.

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

Re: speed warning buzzer
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

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.
