Yeah my key buzzer still works. It sounds like a dying locust caught behind the left headlight...one of my favorite parts on the whole car!
It's a conversation piece for certain.
What's that awful noise under your hood? Just the buzzer for the key in the ignition. Why did you install it under the hood? I didn't. That's where Pontiac put it. That's factory?! Yes. Wouldn't it make more sense for them to have put the buzzer inside the car? Yes. But I assume this was the beginning of a long standing tradition of putting the key buzzer near the hood release. (silence) The hood release isn't inside the car? No. Why not? Different topic. Move on. OK. Why does the buzzer sound like a dying locust? Because it's 45 years old. That calculates to like 293 in car electronics years. Why don't you disconnect it or drive a wooden stake through its heart? Because it starts conversations like this one. I wouldn't want to miss out. Why did you leave your key in the ignition? So I could make sure the buzzer still works.
