Hello List,

I generously thank all who spent time and effort in helping me to find the
trouble.
Well, I wish any of you or I was right in guessing the obvious.  So, I
checked the wires, tightened the connections, changede the switch, and I got
nothing.  The buzzer with the light came up.
Then, I took the instruments out, after I made sure it is well plugged in,
disconnected that block of connections, looked at it, could not find
anything wrong with it, put it back, started the engine again, and the
symptom disappeared.  No more buzzer and red light.  Wow!
One of the unexplainables, but I did not question.  The job was done.
Any of you would know the reason?
Zoltan
