Yeah thanks. On my 1992 Ford Sierra and audible sound were installed from factory. Since the scrapyards don't have Sierras in these days,I was hoping to pull the relay off a later car regardless of Marque,and wire them in my old cars

The piezometers I have seen,look too big,ideal for industrial use
