Hi everybody,

my wife currently has a medical condition that excempts her from wearing her seatbelt, can anyone advise how to disconnect the seatbelt reminder/chime, it drives her (and ME) crazy. Car is a brand new UK Spec V40 s (diesel)



Is it a simple fuse removal or does it require somthing more technical.

Spencer

i have a non-electrical/software work-around. You can buy the actual seat belt buckle (relatively inexpensively) and just buckle it in all the time. I actually have a seatbelt adaptor made by a company called Bamboo that i purchased at the local pet supply store, for when i take my dogs for car trips. http://www.bamboopet.com/all_products/detail.php?ID=91028497
I'm sure you can find one easily, and then just buckle it in all the time (cutting off the long adapter). Or you can goto a scrap yard and ask if you can buy a buckle to fit your car. Not sure which option is easier/less expensive, though.

hope this helps.
