I have not studied the TR6 wiring diagram or given the problem much
thought, but I simply intended to connect the buzzer between ground and the
little green indicator light in the speedo.
If this circuit is load sensitive and the buzzer disrupts the turn
indicators, I will remove the indicator bulb from the speedo. The current
required by the buzzer should be similar to that of the indicator bulb.
If that does not fix it, I will have to get serious. The really useful
information in the original message was the source of a suitable buzzer.
Incidentally, the buzzer that I bought was labelled 273-055A, so it must be
an improved version! Also, I do not intend to mute the buzzer with
electrical tape until I have heard it in operation for a while.
