Just picked up an 04 v6. Car is in great shape but the seatbelt chime and dash light continually go off, even if both the driver and passenger seat belts are plugged in. I did a search but only came across posts regarding turning it off permanently - thats not what I want to do. Id like to fix the problem

Not sure if its related, but the battery light has also been coming on. But its holding a solid charge, and the alternator is putting out 14.2v, so they both seem good.

Thanks in advance

Did you look under the sests to make sure the wiring is plugged in for the seat belts?

Yea I should've mentioned that, Under the drivers seat the wiring is hooked up for sure, and I'm not seeing anything under the passenger seat. I assume this is normal?

I had the same problem, it ended up being the little sensor in the seatbelt clip got all clogged up with dirt and lint. I took the clip apart by unbolting it and cutting the plastic skirt. After that the plastic parts can just be pulled apart. I decided I didn’t want to mess with it anymore and tied the sensor shut so it always reads that the belt is buckled hope this helps
