Is it possible to disable the seatbelt chime...

You are probably right, real men don't wear seat belts.

What kind of "people" do we have in this forum? This guy asked a tech question, if you don't know it, shut up. Why are you guys giving him a lecture on a lousy seat belt? You think he does not know it?

I belong to several other forums, Infiniti, MB, and Mustang, but I never encounter this kind of hostile group of people.

Please go back and read this thread from the start. Manhattan is the one who stepped up the hostility level with his (or her) pseudo-profanity, which was completely unnecessary. Until that point, the answers were quite reasonable.

I myself wonder how other drivers know that Manhattan is on a short trip, so that they can avoid crashing into him until he's on a long trip.

Why can't we just all get along we are not little kids anymore this forum are for helping each other out not bashing one another. Personally if I don't know the answer I would never post it, people are sensitive now a day. Be nice to each other cause we will need each other in the future.

Yeah the OP asked a technical question and the Safety Susans all jumped on his back. I would also like to turn off the seatbelt chime. Not because I drive without my seatbelt but because I find it annoying and intrusive.

There was a similar sequence to turn off the seatbelt chime on my is350. I generally remove my seatbelt when i pull into my driveway and sometimes the garage door won't open right away so I was tired of being beeped at in my driveway. Otherwise, I always have my belt on as I am aware that most accidents occur within one mile of the home or something like that.


I found this mentioned on the Honda forums and the TSX forum. I did not try it though.

-Disconnect the car battery to avoid setting an air bag warning code.

-unplug the three pin connector under the seat, just trace the wire coming out of the buckle to find it under the seat. On my car, the wires from the seatbelt buckle side of the connector were:
Pin 1-Green
Pin 2-Red
Pin 3-Black

And on the other side of the plug, heading under the carpet, the three wires are:
Pin 1-Green
Pin 2-Yellow
Pin 3-Black

- With a short pirce of 18 or 20 guage wire, solid conductor, short pin one to pin 3 on the plug with wires that head under carpet:

1 = NO = Green... short to terminal 3
2 = NC = Yellow..leave open
3 = gnd = Black

Now just leave the connector unplugged with the wire jumping pin one to pin 3 and the car will think that the seatbelt in always plugged in.

Reconnect the battery and enjoy the silence.

Just dont forget to buckle-Up!

To dis-able the Seat Belt Chime

1. turn key on to acc position (do not start car).
2. buckle and un-buckle the Seatbelt 20 times
3. turn the key to the off position.
4. start the car...

I've never tried on my mdx but it worked on my subaru legacy using this method...

[akajjang9]

this is too funny... just let the OP do whatever he wants. no one needs to lecture him. I'm sure none of you other guys want others to tell you what to do either so if you can't help giving him an answer he needs, just move on.

The maturity level on this thread is astounding! Full grown adults sure know how to have rational and civil discourse!

[shadymdx]

With all the stupid remarks and useless posts being said here is what i did. I went to my friends bodyshop and cut 2 front seatbelt buckles from a car that was having the seatbelts replaced due to a locked tensioner and plugged it into my receptical. Simple as that. Works on my M3 and my S5 as well.

I too hate the seat belt chime, I always wear a seat belt and don't need the attorneys reminder. I did try the disconnect on my RL and it threw a bunch of error codes but you could try this on the MDX - near the belt receptical there is a plug and socket (it maybe under the seat) you could try disconnecting the plug. The thought is that the logic either had continuity when a belt was buckled or not so if it does not work then short the pins of the socket so that the logic thinks that the seatbelt is always fastened. Additionally, the socket may have 3 wires in it so therefore the logic is not that simple but it's worth a try.

So you never wear your seatbelt?
