Choke Revoke

A bad connection at the bulkhead connector can cause the Choke Light to come on.

Also a bad connection to the choke heater.

Review those connections to fix it the right way.

But if you just want to “kill it ” (not recommended)
access the Audio Alarm Assembly which is located in the ‘Convenience Center’, which is to the right of the steering column and remove the buzzer.

Here is the choke symbol to help identify the unit:

Re: choke warning light

There isn't a choke buzzer, the noise comes from the choke relay and is an indication of a charging problem.

Re: choke warning light

Check the choke heater fuse first.

Re: choke warning light

also chec the two wire sometimes three wire oil preasure sending unit. It may be under the distributor, or just above the oil filter on the side of the block.
