How to get the damn seatbelt light from blinking?

Post by douglas vincent »

It never goes off. No matter what.

Is there an easy fix?

Thanks

Did you swap seatbelts, or do you still have your automatic ones.

I ended up removing the seatbelt control unit after my swap to get it to turn off.

Is taking the bulb out of the dash an option?

Probably need to jump something so that it thinks your belt is constantly latched.

Have cluster out, just took the bulb and moved it to the empty AT OIL TEMP socket. Also going to disconnect the wires to the annoying beeper, in the cluster right over the speedo.
