Default 75 mph warning feature

I have a 1992 Pontiac Bonneville SE, that, when I travel at 75 mph or higher, I get a warning chime (ding, ding, ding ding, etc...) that won't stop until I go below 75 mph. How do I remove this warning chime?

Is your brake light on? Do you have any problems with the brakes?

That'* where I would guess. The only time I can remember getting the continuous chime is when I had brake problems.

WTF? an 87 Bonneville? The only car that I know of that had voice processing or playback was the Chrysler LaBaron GT.

I'm missing something here :?

I saw this optin in an 87 Olds 98... And it talked **** for any problem...
Yep! I had the same problem awhile ago. I traced it to my mother-in-law sitting in the back seat. Once I threw her out, the problem never came back!!!


Sorry, I just couldn't resist another mother-in-law joke!!

I think the 87 was a Toronado.

My friend'* 86 Maxima has the voice notifications too.
