    Seat belt charm ?? You have to completly shut the car off and then on again to reset it.

    Read. Its mounted to the panel under the steering wheel. However, if you remove it your dash lights won't work.

    It's always a wonderful feeling when you find that thing, remove it and smash it to powder with a sledgehammer. Right up there with peeing off an overpass.

    Re: beeping thing

    I like my seatbelt chime. It's always a fun topic for conversation when I'm giving somebody a ride and it starts beeping out of nowhere (2 to 3 times a week).
    Some suggestions
    Passenger: "What's that noise?"
    Me: "What noise?"
    P: "That beeping noise.."
    M: "Beeping noise? What beeping noise?"
    or
    P: "What's that noise?"
    M: "I don't know. One day I saw somebody crawling out from underneath my car with a pair of wire strippers, zip ties, and duct tape. Ever since then my car keeps beeping and sometimes I hear a ticking noise too."

    Re: beeping thing

    There is a gray box bolted under the radio, behind the ashtray. Unplug that and it will all go away, there is a relay under there too dont unplug that or the car will not start.

    Typical isn't it? There isn't a person in the world who doesn't hate that racket, yet every car in the world tries to make the module as difficult as possible to remove.

    doesn't do anything but control the door, headlight, and keys in the ignition beep on my car. I have had it removed for years, and it has not affected anything.

    might be different on your car,on the US cars it controls the side markers also. they alternate with the turn signals and that box controls them.

    My box is completely gone too. I'm pretty sure that my lights are okay, though.

    Re: beeping thing

    Does the door light light up? Chances are the switch in the door latch isn't making contact. Replace the latch. The seatbelts are electrically controlled by these and will not lock up with the door "ajar".

    it shows on the wiring diagram that is the box that causes the corner markers to blink, i know i tapped both front corner markers off of it to run the sidemarkers,I think if you unplug it the lights it stay steady,not sure but thats the control box for them. there is a beeper thing built right into the box, if you could figure out how to get the box open, you can remove the piezoelectric element that causes the beep. there is also another one in the overhead console piece on lxi's, I got one to put the xm console in my dx,and it has a beeper in it,as well as the light up warning. you can remove the beeper piece easy from the overhead console.

    You're right. My corners light, but they don't blink. That's an irritation I can live with. The beeping is not.

    I might take you up on that. I don't seem to have a headlight warning chime anymore which is a big problem. It's always foggy here in the winters and I've left my lights on more than once. I'd be willing to pick up a module just to get that back. I'll grab one the next time I'm at the junkyard. Thanks!
