Seat belt warning chime
 

Just got a 2012 370Z. I noticed when the driver's seat belt is not fastened and the Z is driven, the warning light comes on but the warning chime doesn't sound. Tried the passenger side and no chime as well. I had the dealership check the fuse and it's fine. The service department said the Z might not have a chime or the sensor in the seat is not working.

Does anyone know if there is a warning chime in the Canadian version of the 2012 370Z? I thought an audible seat belt warning was mandatory.

It doesnt have one friend which is a great thing IMHO.

My former Z (an '09), did not have a "chime".

Strange. The user manual ( page 2-13 ) says the warning light comes on when the ignition switch is ON and the chime will sound for 6 seconds.

It doesn't have a chime

Actually I'm glad it doesn't. I'll have to tell the dealership. They're not sure. Thanks.

no chime. and hopefully that's the only warning light that you will see,ever.

No chime,but got beep..beep....beep sound,not for the seat belts.

I love the chime in my buddies BMW. So pleasant

It does chime. but not until i thinky ou get to a certain speed or drive a certain distance or time. I picked up a friend last weekend and didnt notice he hadnt put on his seatbelt till the chime sounded on the road.

second this.

BMW is pleasant to the point where you probably want it to keep chiming.

Never heard any chime!

Sorry for the thread hijacking but in mine, 2010 (Europe) I have the very annoying chime. It starts when I don't have my seat belt on and drive above 10km/H. Worst thing: it won't stop until I stop the engine or plug it in.

Please don't give me security lessons :-) The 2 reasons:
- trunk is small, I tend to put (sometimes heave) groceries on passenger seat and this it thinks someone is sitting
- I have a long private path until arriving home. So when I stop at my mailbox at the beginning of the path, I don't want to put my belt again for the path to my home which is literally between 2 fields...

Any way to disable that horrible sound?
Thanks.

Yes you can, either:

A) Cut your seat belts off and plug them in and you will have no chime.

or

B) Find a wrecked 370 or compatible nissan in a junkyard and get the seat belts to plug in.

Disclaimer: You did not state whether you wanted to keep the safety feature of a seatbelt or not.

there is no chime but there is a light.... if you unplug the seat belt harness from under the seat, it should no longer chime, light up if you don't wear your seat belt...

I confirm there is an annoying chime from 5-10km/h. Which is the speed I go on the private path on my way home.
Stupid sound won't even stop until the engine is stopped. This is stupid. Hence my wish to disable it.

ANd my request to avoid to receive security lessons apparently wasn't followed by some... WOrst case? A tomato or something like that from the grocery bag on the pasenger seat, without saftey belt, could be seriously injured :eek:
