How to Bypass (Trick) Seat Belt Switch

LouM · Dec 3, 2022

The extender does the same as all the other options only easier. And also for older and or more rotund people especially in the winter with heavy coats on it is much easier to buckel into the extension then clear down to the factory buckle.

I turned the dinger off with Alfa, works great when cruising logging roads.

when you are grading a field to plant crops, you don't want the machines to hit rocks or stones.
We either used a tractor with a drag attached & we tossed stones onto the drag until we got to the end of the field, there we tossed the collected stones.
Sometimes we just used a flat bed truck or a truck & low trailer to do the same things, if you were working by yourself, hopping in & out, it would be a pain to fasten the seat belt to move 6 feet & stop, then unfasten, etc.

By the way, that is why you see stone walls surrounding fields in some areas

Old thread but I'll throw in my two bits... I just went to a salvage yard and found a totalled out RAM truck. Cut the seatbelt, slid off the buckle, plugged it in and no more bells or blinky lights... Got both sides... Salvage yard operator didn't care since I'm a regular there...

Just an update for this thread. I ended up doing some testing and I found that a 550 ohm resistor across the two connector terminals will make the truck think the seatbelt is always connected.

I cut my seatbelt wire and soldered across it. I tried several values before finding this one that worked.

Thanks @Bmags ! I crimped a 470 Ohm resistor to 2 mini spade connectors then plugged it in instead of the seat belt sensor. The spade connectors fit the terminals so it did not require any cutting. The resistor is shrink wrapped to prevent it from making electrical contact with anything by accident. I did not have a 550 Ohm resistor but the 470 Ohm resistor I had on hand works great. I included a photo if anyone else is interested in a similar solution.
For anyone wondering, I always wear my seatbelt while driving but I like to put it on while backing out of my driveway, before the road. The truck will not automatically disengage the parking brake unless the truck thinks the driver's seatbelt is plugged in.

Awesome! If I cared more I could have tested the high and low values to see what the limits were, but I'm glad it worked out.

Any chance you remember what setting it was?

My wife will pop her seat belt to help the boys in the back on road trips, and the dinging is really ******* annoying. I actually am happy with the display, but the ******* dinging...

I only found it in the EVIC settings I think, and turning the seatbelt notifier system OFF didn't do crap. (I have had it off for like 3 MONTHS, and it still is yelling at me.)

You don't need alpha. Just do the seatblet defeat version that has been posted hunfdreds of times. It is actually posted right on this very thread. That, or put in extensions.

In your case if you don't want to bypass:

Simply put belt on, turn key on, wait till everything boots up in the cluster then Unbuckle and buckle three times while finishing with it buckled. Turn ignition off and you should hear a chime. No more belt alert.

Has anyone tried turning VehConfig 5-Seat Belt Reminder Module Present from YES to NO?

I haven’t tried that one before.

There are two issues here though, and the fix depends ultimately on what someone is trying to accomplish.

Silencing the buzzer is fine if you just want to drive (with doors closed) and no seatbelt on. However, in my case I want to drive with the door open (cracked a bit while I’m backing up for instance). In that case, it’s not the buzzer that’s the issue, it’s the auto-park feature that shifts into Park so you don’t run over yourself. In that case you need the system to think the belt is buckled so you can drive with the door open.
