Belt Minder

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Ford Ranger. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The belt minder feature is configurable. For additional information, refer to MODULE CONFIGURATION . To configure without using a diagnostic tool, refer to BELT MINDER DEACTIVATING/ACTIVATING  under General Procedures.

The belt minder feature supplements the current driver safety belt warning function. The belt minder feature is enabled after the current safety belt warning is complete. The belt minder reminds the driver that their safety belt is unbuckled by intermittently sounding a chime and illuminating the safety belt warning lamp in the instrument cluster once the vehicle speed has exceeded three mph. While activated, the belt minder alternates the chime and indicator from ON for 6 seconds to OFF for 30 seconds.
