    you just bought it and it dont work?? hope you bought it from an individual[s/p] if you got it from a dealer it wouldnt pass the inspection and they should replace it for ya.
    But to answer you question in a 07 kw the beeper is under the dash behind the steering column real pita to get too. Dont know if its in the same loca in your though

    the switch for the low air light & buzzer are in the firewall behind the dash panel where the air guages are. also check the fuse box for a bad fuse,found this out at the scales in mo. a few years ago when mine wouldn't work.

    Cross the wires on the switch you think is correct, if the buzzer/light does not come on you either have the wrong switch or no power to the circuit
