Don't know why this would be deferent in a Raptor but this worked for me

• Unbuckle your seatbelt and turn the key to the off position
• Turn your key to the on position till the seatbelt warning light turns off
• Buckle and unbuckle the seatbelt three times and end on the unbuckled position
• Wait for the seat belt warning light to turn on and off again then buckle and unbuckle the seat belt

Also you have to do each individual seat

there is no seatbelt light. it’s a huge prompt that says buckle your seatbelt it shows all 5 seats
Turn what key?
” Then buckle and buckle”?

It's definitely annoying. The check rear seat chimes when you turn it off is quite annoying too.

That's what I want to get rid of, that prompt every time you start it up. Pain in the ass to hit ok every time. Just wondering if there is a way to prevent that from coming up on start up.

You can turn the check rear set off in the menus

That’s not the issue. It’s the display that tells you the status of every seat/seatbelt. The display pops up at startup and remains until acknowledged.
Thanks, Ford, for making me acknowledge that all of the occupied seats are buckled and green. FFS, I only care if someone ISN’T buckled in. SMH
It’s a stupid fix, but apparently the banner isn’t persistent if every seat is buckled in, occupied or not.

I can confirm this and for this reason I keep all of my rears buckled all the time when not in use.

There is no way to turn it off. I haven’t seen a way in forscan to do it either. I disabled the seatbelt chimes in forscan but it still shows the display with all the seats, it just doesn’t show an “X” over the seats that are occupied without a seatbelt anymore, but just a blank seat. It’s incredibly annoying it does this and if you don’t press “okay” it takes a solid 30 seconds to time out. Been waiting a long time for a solution on this so hopefully someone can come up with it. I have a 5Star tune installed on my Brap and I’m considering asking if he can disable it

I also have been complaining about this for almost two years...... It should turn OFF if you're buckled... as of now there's no way to disable this dumb-ass warning that doesn't care if you're buckled and stays on for a full minute if you don't hit OK....AGAIN.
@fordmotorcompany you have idiots working for you.

Not sure if it's the same for the non-raptors, but I disabled all alerts/alert sounds for the seatbelts using Forscan, double honk when leaving the car when it's on and a few other things. There are other alerts not found in the forum's spreadsheet that you can play around with. Make sure not to mess up ones that you aren't sure of. A laptop running microsoft is required as well as a temporary license for Forscan (free) and a OBD adapter cable to connect the laptop to the car's computer.
