Default seatbelt warning light

Any chance I could drive to work tomorrow and not have that seatbelt light staring me in the face? Unplugging the bulb is not an option. Thanks.

Wear the seat belt, like you are supposed to.

Contact is made by the metal clip into the latch.

You can unplug the wire behind the driver seat (near the lower part of the tunnel) and then put a jumper into it. Move the seat full forward and you should see the wire comming out of the carpet.

If that doesn't do the job you may need to wring out the wiring.

I didn't say I didn't want to wear a seatbelt. That's the problem. I wear it and still get to see the belt light.

Very easy mod.
Just unplug the connector next to the driver's right seat belt anchor bolt. This will disable both the warning light and the chime without causing any codes or other problems.

If your airbag light is set it will make your seatbelt light stay on all the time. You cannot just unplug the connector.
