Ford F-150 Beltminder Disable  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18483) 4 years ago

Greetings:

I have a 2006 Ford F-150, whose seatbelt reminder drives me crazy. I wear my seatbelt religiously when out driving, but I do a lot of stop and go, in and out driving on the farm, and this seat belt alarm is a major annoyance.

I have tried following the manufacturers recommendations for disabling the beltminder, but this only works for a little while.

Does anyone know how I can disable this annoyance? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

I actually know how to do this,hahaha.
Remove the sensor from inside the bit where the belt clips into,works every time,but it can be a job getting this apart,or back together again,and then do the same for the other belts,although that shouldnt matter if the seat is not occupied.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18483)  3 years ago

You beast. I should have known you would know how to do this. I'll try to see if I can get into the bit the belt clips into. I was going to go to a salvage yard and buy a belt, just cut off the belt, and keep the metal part clipped into the bit thingy.

Thanks jimbo. I'll give this a try.

I think the other belt idea of your own would be easier,but I do know its the sensor

My husband permenantly disabled his. I don't know how he did it, but he is an electrician. He once disconnected the smoke alarm in a hotel room so he could smoke. I'll try to find out for you.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18483)  3 years ago

That would be great, cyntrow. If you find out anything, please let me know. I cannot stand this thing. I've been driving the Jeep more just because I can't stand the annoying belt beep of the Ford.

I know how to do this !!!

Have you got a box of matches ???

Its a Ford, what more can I say ???


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18483)  3 years ago

I cannot argue with you, Calais. I despise this truck.


By the way, what time / day is it where you are? It is Sunday afternoon here.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Calais (7038)  3 years ago

LOL...LOL....

Its 6 am Monday morning.

Hey, wheres my surprise ?


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18483)  3 years ago

Ask the cat, it'll be better that way.

More importantly, why in the heck are you up so early?


myLot reputation of 97/100. Calais (7038)  3 years ago

Your scaring me now !!!

Ive been up since 3, cant sleep, dont sleep much anyway.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18483)  3 years ago

Don't worry about the so called surprise. I was just messing with you.

Do you not sleep much normally, or are you stressing about something?


myLot reputation of 97/100. Calais (7038)  3 years ago

Insomnia mate ?? Its a pain in the you know where, but life goes on. I only manage about 3 hours of broken sleep most nights.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18483)  3 years ago

That stinks, Calais. Do you feel rested after that bit of sleep, or are you tired throughout the day? I can imagine that myLot could both a curse and a blessing for you when suffering from insomnia.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Calais (7038)  3 years ago

Sometimes its ok others Im a complete zombie. I sometimes just crack open a beer and Im right to keep on going. I mainly just try and keep busy.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18483)  3 years ago

Now I have a bit of a better understanding of one of your other discussions about freaking out in an electronics store, I think. I'm sorry that you have this difficulty. How long have you dealt with it?


myLot reputation of 97/100. Calais (7038)  3 years ago

LOL....That was freaky. Thats the first time that happened. But its been about 7 years. I just learnt to live with it. Its a bit scarey driving sometimes.
