Disable door chime

[silver64]

I figured it out! I too, was looking to see if someone knew how to turn off the door chime while the door(s) is open while the truck is in ACC mode. I made an account to this form just to respond becomes i am excited to figure it out and help others. Either way, for reference i have a 2017 Ram 1500, on the door itself there is hole where the lock engages to the frame/hook once the door is closed. You can push the engaging mechanism in and then down, you will hear a click. Push it one more time to hear an additional click and the door chime will turn off. I took two pictures to help. The first shows the hole i am mentioning and the second shows what it will look like once fully engaged (after the second click). To disengage (turn the alarm back on) simply pull the door handle.

But dont shut your door without pulling the handle.

I had a 2004 Dakota that was the same way. Once I learned the door-open sensor was part of the latch assembly, I kept a round-shank #2 Phillips screwdriver in the truck just for the purpose of setting the driver's door latch to shut off the door-open dinger. I carry one in the Ram as well. That dinger overpowers the stock radio.
As Silver64 noted (and I have done occasionally), don't try to close the door with the latch set.

Nice. Works like a charm in my 2020 1500. Thanks!!

@Kenht87, thanks for the tip. Like other readers stated, this works but it is only temporary. This hack is disabled when you pull on the door handle and close the door.

Does anyone know a permanent hack for this?
