even if your state doesn't require you to wear them, you should still... they save peoples lives... even if you're the safest driver in the world... you should still wear it because there are a lot of bad drivers out there!!

Didn't know their was any state that didn't require the use of seat belts.:confused:

i got that its not safe and all but i didn't ask if it was i'm just asking how can i disable that annoying beeping. If you don't know please don't say such things like hurting people, it creates a negative atmosphere.

So Please if anyone knows how it can be done, i appreciate your help, if its isn't possible to be done i will accept that also.

In advance thanks for your help.

I take short trips from one house to another and its within 2 miles, sometimes just don't feel like putting the seatbelt on., knowing that it isn't necessarily safe.

if you notice i didn't say hurting other people... i was just saying that you could be hurt yourself. Sorry for being concerned about another CRv owner... so much for a community... Just trying to be caring of a perfect stranger... why dont you just cut the seatbelt and keep it plugged in then... because obviously not wearing your seatbelt isn't the smartest thing to do... so just cutting the seatbelt and keeping it plugged in could go hand in hand in not wearing it at all...

dude, it's weird bc i found this out recently... i have a 98 v idk if it will be same or not... but this is where i found it on my v:

underneath the drivers seat there should be two wires that are plugged into one another with some sort of square clips... i these wires are mounted or zipped tied in some fashion to the bottom of the cushion (under the seat) just unplug it this should (it did for me) turn off the seat belt light on the dash and stop the annoying beeping

i hope this helps you out.... but dude you should where your seat belt....

You can do what you want to your vehicle, but I just want to point out that this forum and the management of this forum in no way endorses or promotes disabling your seat belt alarm.

Follow the buckle down. At the base you will see that there two wires. cut the two wires and complete the circuit. Your belt buckle completes the circuit to turn off the light. when that circuit is broken/open the beeping/light is resulted.

Hope that answers your question. (even though it's a few months old.)

Please don't go cutting wires with out being 100% sure of what you are doing. Depending on year and model there can be airbag related compenents in the seat. Newer models have a seat belt pre-tentioner in the buckle itself.

I dont know about cutting wires...but what I did was open the seatbelt buckle with a T10 torx screw. pop off one side of the cover. bend the little metal tab over the little tiny button. This is the button that is pushed in by the metal tab when the seat belt is buckled. So bend it in a way that keeps the button pushed in. Or get a small zip tie and tie the metal tap to the button. The seat belt beep will be gone. You would need to do this on the front passengers seat as well.

I understand what you're looking to achieve ... but while the TWO methods explained ^ above ^ may be effective in "fooling" the system ... wouldn't this negate deployment of the SRS (Air bags) in case of a Real accident? :eek:

You're right. It could be a problem. I take that risk when im driving on the streets near my house. But when I go far I do use the seatbelt. I believe, at least with the method I described, that the air bag will function normally as if the seat belt is in use at all times.

Statistics reveal that most accidents occur within several miles of your home.

The obvious solution to this problem is to pack up and move somewhere else.

give the guy a break, some situations are exempt from seat belt laws like delivery route drivers who get in and out of the seat every few car lengths, specifically paper route drivers. Some jobs on private property on farms and construction sites are next to impossible if required to buckle and unbuckle hundreds of times per day. If you want to rant about seatbelts let's pass a bill requiring seatbelts be installed on busses, esspecially school busses. Just watch while the manufacturers balk at the extra cost of installation and go crying to congress the same way that they resisted installing airbags a few years ago.:mad:

I hate the selt belt noise I usually get into my car start the engine adjust a/c or heat and the radio then pop on the seat belt before shifting into gear. The things I do before putting on the seatbelt only take a few seconds but the noise is increadibly annoying I was hoping honda had a bypass like ford pickups.

I am very unhappy with the seat belt alarms that are standard on my girlfriends new CR-V. I really don't care if you think that I should be wearing a seat belt or in what instances you think it is appropriate or not to wear one. I took the time to register for this forum and enter the CAPTCHA and then the "spelling test" because I want to know if any of the methods mentioned above worked for anyone. I am particularly interested in whether or not splicing the two wires together will solve the problem. I could get one of those little blue wire splice taps and just join the two wires. As for the concern about the airbag, I am assuming that the same sensor that tells the car that there is a butt in the seat to trigger the alarm is the same one that disables the passenger side airbag, not the seat belt one. Any confirmation of this would be stellar.
