Seatbelt Minder Deactivating/Activating

For information on Ford Color Coded Illustrations refer to OEM Color Coding

Activation 

WARNING: Before beginning any service procedure, refer to Safety Warnings in General Information . Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.
NOTE: Deactivation of the Belt-Minder can also be carried out using the diagnostic scan tool. Follow the instructions on the screen.
NOTE: If you are using a MyKey® programmed key, the Belt-Minder® cannot be disabled and does not time out after 5 minutes. If the Belt-Minder® has been previously disabled, it is re-enabled when a MyKey® programmed key is used.
NOTE: The Belt-Minder® is deactivated/activated independently. When deactivating/activating one seating position, do not buckle the other positions.
  1. Apply the parking brake before deactivating/activating the Belt-Minder®.
  2. Place the selector lever in Park (P) (automatic transmission) or Neutral (N) (manual transmission).
  3. Place the ignition OFF.
  4. Close all doors from the inside of the vehicle.
  5. NOTE: The deactivation must be done separately for each seat.

    Unbuckle the seat belt.

  6. Place the ignition in RUN (do not start the engine).
  7. Wait until the seat belt warning indicator turns off (approximately 1 minute).
  8. NOTE: Steps 8 and 9 must be completed within 30 seconds after the seat belt warning indicator turns off (step 7).
    NOTE: Buckle and unbuckle the seat belt at a moderate rate. If the seat belt buckle/unbuckle/buckle sequence is carried out too quickly, the RCM can fail to recognize one of the sequences and the procedure must be repeated.

    For the seating position to be disabled, buckle then unbuckle the seat belt 3 times at a moderate speed, ending with the seat belt in the unbuckled state. After this step the seat belt warning indicator turns off.

  9. NOTE: As confirmation of enabling or disabling the Belt-Minder®, the seat belt warning indicator, beginning with the seat belt warning indicator in the off state, flashes for 4.5 seconds.

    Within 7 seconds of the indicator turning off, buckle then unbuckle the seat belt at a moderate speed.

  10. After confirmation, the deactivation/activation procedure is complete.
