rhd, very many thanks, twofold.

Pics were sorely needed! Job done......and really great too.

That B.......buzzer noise:
Fuse box at driver's left foot.
The 11th fuse on the left side of the fuse array. That is the third from the bottom.
Remove it to prevent buzzer noise.

Removing it does other, nice to me, things when the fuse is put back.
It re-sets the clock to 1.
It re-sets the computer
It re-sets the two trip meters to zero (plus the computer one)
I therefore added a switch between the two legs of the fuse
(The computer's readouts go blank until switched on...stationary or on-the-move. )

One gets:
Ability to play the radio/CD with the door open (important to me on a hot day)
Elapsed trip time from the clock (starts at 1.00...hey, there's a clock on my wrist!)
Elapsed seat time (from the computer)
Fresh trip mileage from zero, in 3 places
Trip fuel consumption/average speed etc

So the switch is turned off after most trips..and one does not forget to switch it on for the next, as the computer is unlit.
