Seatbelt Warning Bleep

[BenAG200]

Does anyone know how I can make it stop on my 200?

With the car being fully stripped and having no seatbelt it's a little annoying to live with. Open to all suggestions including the removal of said bleeper!

You can also get them in coloured ali, black blends better

Nice idea @nick's but as per above, the car is fully stripped, I have nowhere to stick a false buckle!

Mine also goes off because I have non-standard buckets, so I have the same issue.

I'm still using the OE seatbelts and buckle, but the beep still goes off.

Theres an auto electrician near me who I'm going to use to remove the warning lights for airbags etc as they're no longer in the car and he can fix the the bleep too but just if there was an interim measure of removing it I'd love to, especially as travelling to the ring on Monday.

Not jealous.

Haha I haven't been in 4 years so buzzing, worried I'll feel like a complete newbie on a very experienced trackday!

You're doing a trackday then, not just TF? I'm even more jealous. It's one of my goals to do this in mine.

Yes mate I bit the bullet and booked on to DN17. I've only ever done TF but always heard such good things about the trackdays so thought it was worth it.

Nobody? I have one night left to find and rip it out or spend the best part of a week of the bleeping pushing me closer to madness.

How many wires were there going into the original seatbelt buckle? If it's anything like the mk2's, they have a make/break contact switch inside the buckle itself. To switch the beep off would be a simple case of either bridging the wiring across, or opening the circuit depending how it's wired up. Assuming it's the same as well of course!

There's 9 wires at my count going into the plug that was disconnected from the seat.

I'll have a look on mine later and see what I can see.

@BenAG200 theres a 2 pin plug that is the seat buckle wiring. On mine it's a grey and a pink wire. Bridge those across and the beep should stop.

Thanks mate, when you say bridge across do you mean with a resistor or just wire?

Just a wire mate. You need to join the grey and pink together.

Cheers mate, will try and give that a go tonight.

 

[BenAG200]

@Northloopcup which ones mate?
