Default Seat belt warning light

Hello,

I am trying to get the Fasten Seatbelt light to work on a 1979 Corvette. The alarm and light are on, when I hook the seatbelt the alarm goes off but the light stays on, even after the car is started. Is the alarm black box plugged into the fuse box the problem or is it wiring? How could I find out?
Thanks!

Get the Helms shop manual for your year. The schematics are in the back.

Don't forget to check the passenger seat belt. It has a sensor too. Try plugging the belt in and see if the light goes out.
