Hello Everyone, and Thanks for letting me join. I just purchased for my wife our very first GM product, a '07 H3 and so far so good. But I do have one gripe, the damn seat belt alarm. Does anyone know how to silence this idiot alarm? This thing is driving me crazy. I asked the stealer, and all they said it was part of the airbag system and they couldn't disable it. I think that is a load of you know what, cause I've done it on my Ford products, with no ill effects to the airbags. BTW it has been tested, and not by choice. LOL. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
David

There is a connector at the base of the seat belt (female side). You should be able to disconnect it and use soome wire to short between the 2 terminals so that it thinks the circuit is complete. Look at the floor near the seat close to the center console.
That being said, I wouldn't do it for safety reasons.

This has been asked over and over. You can fasten it behind you, like I may do, could go to a junk yard and cut one out or wear it. Just giving you aheads up you are going to get some Sh** for this one, people just yelling to wear it. Be prepared.

zzpw3x and Bennersj, thanks for the hints. I did get one nasty reply, but hey we live in the US and it's their right to spout off any crap they want too, and I don't have to listen. If I don't want to wear it, it is my choice. DUH, and you know who you are.
Thanks Again,
David

It's just opne of those topics, being new you will learn. Their is a good group of people on here and we all do enjoy beating each other up IN FUN time to time. Seat belts are just one of those topics each person has their own strong feelings about. I asked the same question when I first signed up, don't be offended, as I see you weren't.

no value judgement here but I just don't feel comfortable in the front seats anymore without the seatbelts on. And it was one of the factors in breaking up with a girl - she wouldn't wear a seat belt. If she didn't care enough about her life, why should I?
Diesel, not imposing my beliefs on you (good ole US of A) but simply sharing my opinion.
So, where are the friggin' pics? Welcome to the forums.

For the record, I always wear a seatbelt on the road, and even offroading, however, at work I'm getting in and out allot and not going over 10 mph and the seatbelt thing gets irritating.
Stick a key down in the seatbelt latch until it clicks then pull the key out. After you use the seatbelt (press the unlatch button) it will go back to normal operation.
BTW: Next time save your self some grief and use the search function.

Yeah I know who I am Diesel Dork, let me put it to it this way...I'm sick and tired of dolts making my job miserable and running up my insurance rates because you're too stupid to wear your frickin' belt. Yeah, we've touched on this subject before and it still pisses me off. If you're not in the emergency services then you'll never understand. If you are and you've seen enough death and mayhem because of peoples stupidity then you'll know exactly where I'm coming from. Sure it's your choice, it's also your choice to put one round in the cylinder, spin it one good time and pull the trigger to see what happens.
Geeze! Why do N00Bs have to keep asking this question??? I need to go destress now.

We do like to rip on each other every now and than.
It's the law to wear the seatbelt so I'm just used to wearing it all the time, even when off roading.

I have a better question... Does anyone know how many ft/lbs of force it takes to smash your head against the windshield and pop it out? You see, I don't have a windshield popper tool so I thought if I used my head then I wouldn't have to be inconvenienced by using the proper tool. You know I'm all about convenience and those windshield popper tools the government makes me buy are such a pain. Besides, nobody am gonna tell me what I can do! Not as long as I'm still stoopid!

I too wear my seatbelt all time, well not all the time.
When I'm off road and driving up a trail and come to gap fences and the occasional tree branch or debris in the way
taking the seatbelt off and on is a real hassle. So here's what I ended up doing. I went to a local junk yard and bought two seatbelt
latch tabs ( the thing you click into the receiver). It allows me to get in and out at a moments notice and none of that latching the belt behind me, which i did on my last off road trip.
You may think this is all crazy, but it sure works well for me
I always wear my belt when on a serious public road tho

One thing you may want to keep in mind is that your dealer was right, it does effect the airbags. The passenger sied airbag will not turn on until the seatbelt is latched. Look at the lights on the dash when you have a passenger who is not wearing their seatbelt.

Thanks again to all who actually answered me.
To the rest of you, you have no idea what or where I use my vehicle. FYI it is on my ranch in Wyoming and riding the ranch with that idiot alarm going off is a pita. While I'm on the road I do wear it, but again it is nunya.
Thanks,
David
