Disable Seat Belt Chime?

I can see why you are a "senior member" with 1300 posts. Thanks for adding nothing to the conversation while creating more useless junk to sift through. Can we please keep things technical and resist the temptation to add "clever" comments to every f'ing thing that somebody posts?
If anyone has real answers, please join in and say your piece.

We used to have mods that would close any thread more than a few months old and ban or at least warn the person who wouldn't start a new thread so we wouldn't have to suffer through crap like this but then the site was sold to clowns who think kids who are too naïve to know better are the way to make lots of ad money.
BTW, the real answer is to do a search for the dozens of good answers that have been given over the last 11 years. But noobs are too lazy to do that so...

I think you guys need to understand the difference between a CHAT ROOM and a FORUM. Again, think "reference material". Why would I open a new thread? I used the same thread for continuity of subject. You know, so we're not reinventing the wheel over and over again?
For those of you that enjoy commenting on the merits of the topic, again, please understand why you are unpopular in real life. You have nothing to offer except butting in where you're not wanted and making useless comments. I'm not going to play your game and hurl insults back at you. Go to a CHAT ROOM to get whatever human contact you are lacking in the real world.

Are you serious? I'm trying to talk tech in the midst of everyone lecturing about seatbelt safety and chiming in about the merits of the conversation (not the subject of the conversation) and I'm the troll?

[QUOTE=unixcorn;1592925618]I was reading this for entertainment...
I think this quote from unixcorn says all we need to know. You guys cruise around this site just for "entertainment" and inject useless commentary for craps and giggles. Definition of troll. Let's check some scores:
unixcorn has been thanked 37 times in 1310 posts for a rate of 2.82%.
simpletogo has 40 on 1336 = 2.99%.
ftmorganal has 32 on 7901 = 0.041%. That's worth repeating...7901 posts with a 0.41% thanked ratio.
I've been thanked 5 times in 13 posts. That 38.5%. Perhaps because I stick to issues rather than hurling insults for my own entertainment. Try it some time and one day you might get a batting average near mine.
Enough of this nonsense. If anyone has a solution please post. There are two pairs of wires that run up into the seatbelt. The solution thus far has been to jump one of them. That clearly does not do the full job. That second set of wires has some function. I just haven't opened the buckle up because it doesn't screw together. I'd rather have a permanent mod that works, but I suppose I can live with belt extenders.

As for your other comments. I can't say I disagree with your opinion on the general purpose of a forum but I think you're taking all this way too seriously. Making presumptions about a persons worth based on their thanks to post ratio and somehow equating it to their real world popularity is just silly. Other than that

If you don't like the way it is now, just go back and read what others have said in the past. Pretty much every issue anyone has with a C6 has been discussed and solved several times before the stupid "thanks" button arrived. But if you are new to the site and too lazy to do a search... BTW, if you had been here for a while you would also know that the native search feature is pretty worthless compared to using Site with a Google search. But you are too lazy to search for that tip or in too much of a hurry to have someone else solve your problem again and again and again and again and again, then you wouldn't know that either.

OK, here's 57 postings here mostly on disabling the seatbelt chime.

I have to ask why you're looking for a more complex permanent solution when the plugs are just as affective and easily reversible if need be? Plus they're interchangble between many vehicles. I have them in mine because of my 4point harness and they work great. I just don't understand the need for permanency for something like this but I guess that's really none of my business. I don't know anything about the wiring but if you don't find the solution you're looking for just know the plugs have worked great for many.

All that aside, here we go again with the name calling and the assumptions of superiority. Let me set things straight...
A circuit diagram (which you have kindly provided) and a wiring diagram can be two completely different things. It is common for a circuit diagram (like this simple schematic) to show the logic of how a circuit works. But the wiring (and its true diagram) can have all kinds of complexities that a schematic doesn't show.
Trust me here, there are two pairs of wires running into the convoluted tube that leads to the buckle mechanism. The PK to TN/WH is the one I jumped (as proscribed). I didn't mess with the other one. The simple jump of one pair does not work. It causes completely unpredictable behavior.
Now that some of you have come around to answering tech questions, can we please drop all the "moron, genius, idiot, nuts" chatter and stick to the subject?

Once you put in a plug/insert, you've pretty much committed to driving without the seat belt unless you want to futz around and try to remove while driving, then find a place to put it. My intent isn't to drive around at all times with no seat belt. I just want it to be like it is in my '66. Just get in the car, I'm aware that there are seatlbelts, I'll put them on when I'm damn good and ready, and I don't need chimes and a blinking light and a message on the DIC to keep hounding me. I see a schematic on a later post (thanks finally to ftmorganal for posting something on topic). That might help.

Unless you own an '05. It will continue to ding if above a set speed. It won't ding if stationary or below that speed. I don't recall exactly what that speed is, though. Somewhere between 5 and 10 mph.

Disabling is possible. I did it in my Odyssey and that had a complex system in place. I am not the only person on Earth that wants Big Brother out of the car. Search any make and model and you will find tons of material on how disable seat belt warnings. I just long for the days when the seat belt was there, we knew damn well it was there, and we didn't need it yelling at us.

Sometimes I'm leary of answering because what is normal to that car is not normal to 90% of C6s.
