Seatbelt Temp Chime turn off option - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

if you unplug the switch at the seatbelt latch, don't you get a flashing seatbelt sign or something like that?

you're correct

so. if your dealer won't disable the drivers side warning for you (which is possible, per the toyota service manual)

you can do this:

put a 20Kohm resistor between pin 3 and 4 under the seat

Interesting... Will that mess with the airbag deployment at all? The guy that sold me my car told me the airbags will not deploy if the passenger isn't wearing a belt. He said you are worse off if the airbag were to deploy that way. Probably

he's right. no seatbelt + airbag = broken neck.

with this setup, if someone's in the seat, and you've disable the seatbelt latch, the airbag will deploy and probably kill your passenger.

This isn't for the passenger side. This is only for the driver's side due to my harness. MY passenger side is still there and the dealer WILL turn the chime off for the passenger side but not the warning light. That's what i was told

so put a resistor between pins 3 and 4 and you're set. resistors are about a buck at radio shack.

either way, if you're in an accident, you'll probably die anyway, with those brackets you got goin on lmfao

Lifes no fun without dangers lol

I dunno if its 3 and 4 but its the red and green wire you can tap into and put a resister between them. I used a 2 ohm resister.
