My '01 the light would flicker on and off, with seatbelt on. Under the driver seat there is the harness for the seatbelt light switch. On the floor side is the female. I unplugged the harness, took a piece of wire about two inches long, stripped the ends, and jumped the female side. The light hasent been a problem since. Its been like that for over a year now.
Sounds like a poor connection. If the light isn't on when you turn the key, means a malfunction. Light on when running and using a seatbelt also means malfunction. That area where the switch is at and under the seat gets a fair bit of use and abuse. Likely spot.
