I want to disconnect the back up beeper on my 2008 Gem e4. I’ve read some of the post and none seem to be for my car. My controller #10 pin is white not blue or light green. I still cut it to check and it still beeps.The beeper on the left side of the dash is not making any noise so I know that’s not it. The beeper seems to be built into the module under the dash. Any ideas. This thing is driving me nuts…

I’ll double check and send a photo of what I cut. The wire I cut runs from the controller through the dash to a module. In that module is where the sound is coming from

Thanks for your help. I cut the wire and bo more back alarm. So frustrating when it would come on, especially in the earlier mornings. I really appreciate this forum and the people who give out good information…  
Now if I could just figure out why my tool light , turtle light and forward/reverse indicators are blinking after I changed 2 batteries… It didn’t come on the lat time I changed 2 batteries…

Gents, Could not agree more, that back up beeping is so annoying. I have an 06 E4, can you pls let me know what wire I would cut for my model year. Appreciate the advice and Merry Christmas.

As posted above, should be pin 10 on your controller.
