Seatbelt light comes on for no reason
For the past couple of weeks now, my seatbelt light comes on when I'm driving. The seatbelts are on. It seems like it only does it when I turn a corner or hit a bump in the road. Would it be a fuse or something??? Please help!!

In case you can't tell, I'm new here, I'm just getting started on this whole forum thing. I don't appreciate the whole "Lazy" comment. Next time, maybe you could kindly tell me where it was. Oh yea, thanks for the info.

well welcome to the board non the less and i had the same problem with mine, either you have low brake fluid
or
you have no brake pads left which make the cailbers push further causing less fluidin the punp hence light coming on
the light doubles as a low brake fluid light also
i replaced my pads rotors and topped her off with fluid and low and behold no light!
and i assume you already got this info but id thought id just put this in to be different and instead of flamming you, the newbie
welcome

Dont get too off topic here...
Does your car beep when the light goes on, if so, i had this same problem, so i took out the fuse, yea, i might have to tuck under the belt everyday, but its better than hearing that damn beeping and havin my belt jerk...IMO, you should just take the fuse out n deal with it.

the other thread pointed to by Chastan would be a good starting point for checking out the switch that controls the little bugger.

I know you're new here, I didn't mean anything negative by that, I was kind of joking. I just meant I tried to save you some time by searching for some threads for you. I didn't know you'd misunderstand. sorry

Hey thanks...sorry I took it personal...I just can't stand being called lazy...I am so far from it. Thanks for all the help...I think I'll just have to take the whole center cosole out. Again...sorry for being a bitch.

The thread that Chastan linked you to is one way to fix this problem. It's what I tried first, but it only lasted a couple months. The permanent (and extremely easy) fix is this:
Remove the center console cover, two screws in the back, two in the front. Sit in the back seat. You'll see two round spool contacts with plastic cover plates. Pop off the cover plates. Under each one is a round contact disc with two wires attached. Pull one of the contact discs off and cut the wires from the disc. Strip the two wires back and splice them together with a crimp connection, or you could solder them together too. Just make sure you short together the two wires for one side first, then do the other side. Replace the plastic cover pieces. That's it ... bye, bye annoying beep and light ...

P.S. when I put a smilie in (--> <--), it usually means I'm trying to be nice, sorry once again.
