The seat belt indicator light,top left corner of dash, does not turn off when motor is started.
Is the problem in the seat belt connector or should I be looking behind the dash?
Thanks

look at the connectors on the part the belt hooks into. make sure they are tight. measure the resistance of the tensioner. there should be resistance.
