Any way to kill the seatbelt and door open alarms? I don't wear the seat belt on the trails around my house and sometimes I like to leave the doors open to listen to music.

Seat belt chime
1. Turn the ignition switch on (without starting car)
2. Press the ODO/TRIP switch until the odometer displays "ODO"
3. Turn the ignition switch off
4. Turn the ignition switch on
5. Press ODO/TRIP switch immediately (within 6 seconds after turning the power switch ON) and hold it down for 10 seconds or more.
6. Continue holding the ODO/TRIP switch and fasten the front passenger's seat belt.
7. Check that the odometer displays either "b-on" or "b-off" (it will be "b-on")
8. Press the ODO/TRIP button to change the display to "b-off".
9. Turn the ignition switch off.
10. Turn the ignition switch on while depressing the brake pedal.
11. Check that no buzzer sounds when setting on the front passenger seat.

I just used a random spring-loaded clamp with rubber coated tips. A stick found on the side of the trail works well, too. Just jam it between the button, and the door latch.jeffxlh said:Runner Ryan, How did you clamp it?
Last I heard you have to take it to the dealer. Posed to be pretty simple.Can anyone tell me how to modify the remote keyless entry to one click does it all?
We had a guy that didn't wear his seatbelt on trails near his house, he got ejected when he got too close to the edge of a drop off, when his 4wd rolled, his head was crushed between the vehicle body and a large rock. He is dead.
On the road and on trails that pose a threat for possible roll (or really any risk), I couldn't agree more with intent of the statement above. Seatbelts are there for a reason, USE THEM.
On another note, when you are driving flat offroad, say on a hunting lease, and keeping speeds down.....getting in an out often depending on what you want to shoot, what fence you want to fix and so on...This is the coolest fix I have seen yet. That alarm was enough to give you a headache. The directions work perfect. Thanks for the post.
Haven't had a passenger in the car since I just turned the alarm off. Does this overrule the passager alarm as well?
