Speedstertwin 07-21-2005, 10:49 PM I have an 05 K2500 6.0 as a work truck. On my 03 I was able to de-program the seat belt chime. This 05 dings when I drive away and then again a few miles down the road. I cant find anything in the book about turning it off. Is there a way?

Ben John Havilah 07-22-2005, 11:28 PM My 04 Ford F250 (Which was a pile of junk) allowed you to program this "feature" out. I have not figured out how/if my 05 Sierra will allow this. (Please keep your safety comments to yourself). We have a ranch and at times need to drive slowly without seat belts. The seatbelt reminder is a pain. My solution took about an hour in the shop tonight. All I did was trace the stock belt out onto a piece of aluminum, then cut and filed to the right thickness. A quick polish finished it off. I like this solution because it makes you think when to use it. It is an active solution rather than a passive one that happens without any thought. Yes I could have gotten one from the dealer but this was more rewarding.

It's surprising how many roll over accidents occur on I-80 here in NE Nevada and how many folks are ejected from and crushed in the incident. See a few of these and you learn to love your seat belts. bobo 07-23-2005, 11:15 AM I like my chime....it reminds me and it only lasts for a couple seconds. It is a good idea. I rolled a truck in I90 in WI and the seatbelt saved my life. Now I try to wear it all the time. I always forget to put my seatbelt back on when I get out and leave the truck running, then get back in and go. The chime reminds me. I can see that it would get annoying if you were using the truck on the farm. moss022 07-23-2005, 03:45 PM i ended up taking the seats out for some stereo intall, and i forgot to hook up the little wiring harness on the drivers seat. i notice it several months later and pluged it back in. my ding came back, so i unpluged it and no more ding! nothing. Timberwolf530 07-23-2005, 06:59 PM If unplugging the wiring harness doesn't work, just find the wires that lead to your seat belt and splice them together. It worked on my lawn mower.
