Seatbelt Notification - How to disable?

[cmtaz]

My '23 Wildtrack did not do this when i started it up. My '24 Raptor displays this every time I start it up, until I press the OK button. I've been thru settings and driver assistance and have not found a setting that turns it off. Is this a "Forscan" mod and if so, does anyone know which Forsacn setting it would be?

Thank you

Don’t know but it’s on my ‘25 every time I start it if my belt isn’t clicked before I hit the button. Slightly different graphic but same thing. Will be following this.

Mine goes away after a few seconds once the belts are snapped in.

This worked for me:

SWITCHING THE SEATBELT REMINDER ON AND OFF WARNING: While the system allows you to deactivate it, this system is designed to improve your chances of being safely belted and surviving an accident. We recommend you leave the system activated for yourself and others who may use the vehicle. Note: The driver and front passenger warnings switch off independently. When you perform this procedure for one seating position and the other seat is occupied, buckle the other seat. Read Steps 1 - 4 before proceeding with the programming procedure.

For the seating position you are switching off, fasten then unfasten the seatbelt four times at a moderate speed, ending in the unfastened state. After each unfasten, the seatbelt warning light switches on and off with each fasten. 4. The seatbelt warning light flashes for confirmation. This switches the feature off for that seating position if it is currently on. This switches the feature on for that seating position if it is currently off.

I bought plastic inserts off of Etsy which didn't work so now I'm trying these seat belt extenders:

Not the highest quality, as it is hard to clip my belt in and out of the extender and I question it's efficacy with my belt clipped in should I ever need it to restrain me. Open to other suggestions...

This too worked for me on my 2025 7MT. One of my favorite things I’ve done so far, those chimes drove me crazy!

I did this but IDK if anything really changed. The red seatbelt indicator flashed...confirmation. I still get the warning when I start it up.

 

[Brronco23]

I think you have to make sure that all doors, hood and tailgate are latched. It took me a couple times for it to take effect.

It will still notify you once on screen about not being buckled in but will not beep at you anymore.

Oh man. I gotta try that tomorrow. Forscan changes weren’t getting rid of the chimes. That’s great news if this works.

Then I just need to get rid of the No Key Detected chime…

Yeah, that’s not working on a 2025. Ugh.

Confused...
Is the purpose of this thread to find a way to drive without being belted and not get a warning?
Just trying to understand what's going on here.

Yes. Sometimes I’m popping around to different fishing holes along river roads and it’s obnoxious. Never driving more than 10-15 mph without any other drivers in sight.

On the road, I’m always belted. I’m no dingus.

Bingo, as well as pheasant hunting five sloughs in the same field, not to mention throwing a heavy tool bag, or bad of dog food in the back seat, or simple a larger person in the back seat setting off the middle seat sensor. I can't imagine why anyone would want the warning.

Not accusing anyone of being a “dingus”… I stop and get the mail, then pull down the driveway to park the Bronco, and the seatbelt chime in the driveway is a tad bit annoying.
