I just bought my wife a 13' RX 350 F-Sport and if you don't put on your seatbelt right away the car goes nuts. Is there any way to disable the seatbelt chime in the new RX? I have an 08' IS and i was able to turn the chime off by myself.

View 3 RepliesI called the only Toyata dealership nearby repeatedly and asked them if they would disable the seatbelt chime, as per the instructions in my car's manual, but they denied knowledge about this.
This morning I decided to cut the two wires to my seatbelt and wrap them with electrical tape. This solved the problem with the seatbelt chime but introduced another problem: I now have an icon on my display that looks like a driver with an airbag, which I assume means that my airbag has been disabled. How can I manually turn the airbag back on?
I just bought a ceritifed pre-owned 2010 RX 450h. I love it, but a couple of questions as I get to know the car.
1) The rain sensor seems to not work. I set the wipers to what on another car would be "intermittent" but the wipers never come on. Am I missing something, am I a dummy? Or should I just get the dealer to replace the sensor?
2) Any way to turn off the seatbelt warning chime?
I can't find the procedure to disable the seatbelt chime for my 2012 GX460. I did read and perform the procedure listed for other Lexus vehicles, but this doesn't seem to be the right method... How to do this?
View 4 RepliesOn a 2011 RX450h, is it possible to disable the door chime when the drivers door is opened but the car is in accessory mode (i.e. not running)?
Since I just got the RX I've been playing a lot with the settings and audio presets. With the drivers door open the chime just continues forever and I cannot find any option to turn off the chime when in accessory mode.
Would be very interested to know how to disable these annoying features, including seatbelt chime, if possible. I always wear my belt when moving, unless it is just from the front of my house around the alley to my rear garage.
View 5 RepliesEverytime I open the door to get out of my 08 LS460 the warning bell rings incessantly.
The only thing I can think of is that I'm usually in a parking garage and the lights are on due to the auto-feature on the lights. But, I think sometimes it rings even though the lights aren't on.
Sometimes you open the door but don't jump right out of the car. Is there anyway to disable this ringing bell?
I tried moving a latch in the (driver) door to stop the chime from chiming when the driver door is open and the ignition is in the accessory position, but no luck. Looking for a solution for temporarily disabling the chime through some mechanical means? (2010 Ranger)

View 4 RepliesI've read that a few of you have disconnected this; So which fuse or wire do I pull ? Looks like it would just be a wire, as I don't see a specific fuse for this.

How do I turn of the NAV Warning accept and the seat belt chime? I don't have easy access to a VAG-COM?? Will the dealer do it for me?
Is there a way to turn off the overzealous seatbelt alarm? It chimes constantly when the seatbelt isn't on, even when the car is in park. Sometimes I unbuckle my seatbelt to get my crap together before I get out of the car, but its hot here so I like to leave the AC running while get set. I know some cars have some obscure series of button presses to turn this off. Also is there a way to stop the horn from honking when I press the lock button on the remote?
View 3 RepliesHow to turn off the constant annoying back-up alarm in a Prius v (lowercase v for the Prius v wagon) three? I asked the dealer and they told me it cannot be done...no codes yet. I remember doing a series of settings in a Gen II Prius that would turn off the backup alarm and seatbelt chime.
View 19 RepliesIn December I purchased an 04 Touareg and LOVE the car(hate the tires but that's another discussion). I read an article on club touareg about a product VAG-COM that could disable the seatbelt chimes? How this is done, do I need to purchase something?
View 1 Replies2012 Camry SE I4, non-entune, no roof, Kentucky built in spring '12.
Tonight on the way home, driving in light traffic, roughly 45-50mph seatbelt light came on and began to chime. I was wearing my seatbelt at the time, and had nothing in the passenger seat. When approaching a stoplight, the light went out and the chime stopped upon braking. I am going to take it in tomorrow to have it checked, but am assuming the dealer will find nothing. I looked under the dr. seat and there wasn't anything that could have pulled on the wiring.
So again, briefly:
During light traffic with seat belt buckled properly, seat belt light illuminates and chime starts. Upon braking for stop light the seatbelt light went out and chime stopped.
This is kind of a big deal to me because this is my wife's primary vehicle and the airbag will not work with the seatbelt light illuminated.
Just got a new F450.
Is there any way to turn off the drivers side seat belt chime?
Passenger side does not chime if unbuckled.
How do I turn off the seatbelt light? What fuse do I have to pull 2 disable the DRL?

View 1 RepliesThe passenger front belt on my new 450h has a weird behavior. It keeps retracting and locking when someone uses it. You can hear it ratcheting back. It even gets tighter if you exhale. Dealer replaced it once and the problem persists.
View 11 RepliesInstructions on how to disable your seatbelt chime.
1. Buckle Seatbelt (1.1) go to ACC mode.
2. While depressing the brake, turn the key to the ON position. I Was thinking someone might experiment with in the ACC mode might work by pressing the start button w/o your foot on the brake pedal.
3. Press the trip reset button a few times, stop when the ODO is displayed (not trip distance - A or B). If the odometer starts at the mileage, cycle through anyway.
4. Turn the ignition to LOCK.
5. Unbuckle the driver's seat belt.
6. Turn the key to the ON position again. When the dash lights comes on, press and hold the trip reset button, and count to 20 (slowly).
7. While still holding the trip reset button, buckle the driver's side seatbelt.
8. The odometer display should read "b ON" or "b OFF". Depress the trip reset button to toggle.
9. Unbuckle and Turn OFF the car.
