An alarm sounds different from the one on the belt, this is a beeper that sounds five times as a watch's second hand and does it five times with silence intervals (twenty five times) after that amount the noise goes off and it is handled without problems, in fact It does not fail, only that I had never heard that alarm and I would like to know what it indicates. The board remains without indicating any problems.

Hello,

Yep what has probably happened is the switch inside the drivers seat belt latch has gone bad. There are two wires that come from the seat belt buckle that can be connected together to see if this is the problem.

Thanks for the video really helps.

Please let us know what you find.

Cheers, Ken
