When my buzzer is on my CB radio lights up like a Christmas tree. Giving and indication of the strong RF signals produced by the buzzer module. If this is happening over the right frequencies it can mess with a variety of things, not least of which is the magnetic/analog signal being produced by the crankshaft position sensor and cam position sensors. Both of which, when fuzzed up can cause immediate stalling issues.

For example, my idle dips lower than normal every time I stop at the intersection in my town by a brightly lit animated/LED bank sign that sits on the corner, as soon as I move away from the sign...my idle is normal again.

Older vehicles like ours were not very well shielded from this type of interference, so this test is important to rule out.
Well well I have a lot of static on the CB radio and and red wire is connected to the Plus on my battery and the black is the negative to my battery and yes I have a fuse on the positive so I don't know if that has to do with that door jam button!.

I was only using the CB as example of how you can detect that a lot of radio interference is created by the buzzer module. I would want to rule out that the interference is causing motor problems by disabling the buzzer (which I don't know how to do without researching, I don't have it in front of me).

so I still have not found the issue and it feels like it's gotten worse I tried the putting in the door jamb button today and it actually stalled right out so I disconnected it again I'm getting so fed up I'm about ready to put the car up for sale I'm going to go see a mechanic on Wednesday I've already poured money into this trying to fix it on my own and can't figure it out. 😫
