Default Seat belt question

So I was wondering if there is a way to silence the seat belt "ding" when your not wearing it. It is absolutely annoying. I mean I wear my belt all the time when im driving. But if I take my belt off before I put the truck in park it constantly "dings" until i put my belt on again or turn the truck off. Or if I move my truck more than a couple feet.

Can I disable this ANNOYING sound?

Ya I guess that would have been nice eh? lol... sorry bout that. I have not treid it yet but apparently it works for MOST.

From the manual
NOTE: The following steps must occur within the first 60 seconds of the ignition switch being turned to the ON or START position. DaimlerChrysler does not recommend deactivating the Enhanced Warning System (BeltAlert).

1. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position and buckle the driver’s seat belt.

2. Start the engine and wait for the Seat Belt Warning Light to turn off. and then re-buckle the driver’s seat belt at least three times within 10 seconds, ending with the seat belt buckled.

NOTE:
Watch for the Seat BeltWarning Light to turn on while unbuckling and off while re-buckling the seat belt. It may be necessary to retract the seat belt.

4. Turn off the engine. A single chime will sound to signify that you have successfully completed the programming.

Or take a scotch-lok and tap it across the two wires in the seat belt to make it think it it latched.

The choice is yours.

Ya i also saw some other suggestions of cutting the wires and bypassing the sesnor. But I figure might as well try the easyiest way before messing with electircal.

No need to cut anything. Slip this over the two wired and squeeze it (or do as listed above)

So I tried the directions in my previous post and it works.

So give it a shot if interested in turning off that damn ding..
