Can you elaborate more on that?I just read on another Forum that someone else was having the same issue and they unplugged the connector under the seat and then jumped the 2 wires together so the dinger would think the seat belt was buckled. They said no more problems after doing that.
Wish I would have seen this 2 hours ago. Should have been the first thing I tried.I put a shot of wd40 in the buckle and snapped it a few times so far it stopped the problem ( bad ground?)
Can you elaborate more on that?
Well I found a picture and detailed description ( sometimes I need some hand holding) on what to do.
I got it done and took it for a test drive and it seems to be working.
I found a picture ( I can't find it now) that showed the connector and it had a paper clip with one side sticking into the connector alongside the black wire and the other side of the paper clip sticking into the connector along side the green wire.Ok keep us informed in case someone else would have the problem, you just jumped to wires together?

So basically creating a jumper.
And possibly a fire...paperclips are not designed to be part of electrical systems, just sayin’.I found a picture ( I can't find it now) that showed the connector and it had a paper clip with one side sticking into the connector alongside the black wire and the other side of the paper clip sticking into the connector along side the green wire.

Very true, but I found coated paper clips and it is a low voltage.And possibly a fire...paperclips are not designed to be part of electrical systems, just sayin’.
Do you have a better solution?Why would you pay probably about $200 to $300 for the Dealer to fix something that's not really needed?
His solution was to cut the wires or make a jumper. His solution doesn't involve fixing the issue causing the problem, so naturally he would find it strange to read that you want to actually fix the problem.Do you have a better solution?
I consider the paper clip a temporary patch.
I wouldn't ever consider driving my Jeep without a seat belt on, but others do need the reminder.
If it was just the light on the dash, it wouldn't be as much a problem as the audible ding, ding that never stopped.I thought the problem was just the seatbelt reminder wouldn't go off even when the seatbelt was buckled? Everyone should know to buckle up by now and don't need to be reminded. But it's your vehicle do whatever you think is best.
