MODEL(S): RX-7
ISSUE: HIGH PITCH BUZZING NOISE AT DASH - REMOVE OSCILLATOR
If you hear a high pitched buzzing noise coming from the center
of the dash with the key off on a 1979-85 Mazda RX-7, the cause may be
a defective oscillator. The oscillator is located under the hood, in
the area near the left headlight.
To stop the noise, unplug the oscillator. The oscillator is used
as a dash instrument circuit backup. Removing the oscillator has no
other effect except to stop the constant buzzing noise.
