You get to dance with your car a little bit on this one.

Step 1: Turn ignition switch to ON. All the way forward without cranking the engine.

Step 2: Wait for the seatbelt alarm to go off and stop. About 1-2 min.

*Steps 3-5 must be completed within 60 seconds or the process with have to be repeated.

Step 3: Buckle and unbuckle the seat belt three times, ending with the belt unbuckled.

Step 4: Turn the headlights on then off.

Step 5: Buckle then unbuckle the belt three times ending with it unbuckled.

*After step 5 the safety light will be turned on for about three seconds then go off.

Step 6: Within seven seconds of the seat belt light going off buckle then unbuckle the belt again.

That should disable the safety alarm. You will see the seat belt light blink a few times to confirm it has been done successfully.



Good Luck.

Why not just wear your seatbelt? Seems to be a simple solution.

Same here.

I wear mine ALWAYS no matter what, always have but if I am sitting somewhere running or working on the car and need it on then it starts to ding.

It doesnt bother me enough to remove the chime but I can see how some might want that.

It will literally take you 3 minutes to do.

I think in my 06 FX4, I had to buckle and unbuckle the seatbelt 10 times... for each side.

Fink have you noticed that the truck is SOOO MUCH MORE ANNOYING with it than your Mustang?

I know my FX4 would start in about 10 seconds and was loud as hell and just had a pissed off tone to it! lol

It was the worst when playing around with the tune on the truck, the Diablo already takes like 3 days to program the damn thing and you just had to sit there doing what it tells you to do. x_x

The Mustang isnt so bad about that when tuning, heh.
