saftey belt warning light grr

Hi guys ..I just bought a 2003 SES The only thing is the seat belt light and chime is driving me crazy. I unplugged a connector under the seat and I got it to shut off but then the airbag light flashes.

Any Ideas???

Thanks

Here is procedure, You need to follow it step by step. This is staight from the 2003 Taurus service manaul from Ford.

Belt minder Deactivating/Activating

1. Before deactivating/activating the belt minder,set the parking brake.

2. Place gearshift in P(park)(automatic transmission) or nuetral position (manual transmission).

3. Place the ignition switch in the OFF position.

4. Close all the vehicle doors.

5. Unbuckle the driver's safety belt.

6. Place the parklamps/headlamps switch in the OFF position. (If the vehicle is eqquipped with Autolamps, this will not affect the procedure).

Deactivating/Activating

1. Turn the ignition switch switch to the RUN position. (Do not start the engine).

2. Wait until the safety belt warning lamp turns off(approximately one to two minutes).

3. NOTE: Step 3 through 5 must be completed within 60 seconds or the procedure must be repeated.

Buckle then unbuckle the safety belt three times, ending with the safety belt unbuckled. This portion of the procedure can be done before belt minder warning activation.

4. Turn the parklamps/headlamps on then off.

5. Buckle then unbuckle the safety belt three times ending with the safety belt unbuckled. After this step the safety belt warning lamp will be illuminated for three seconds.

6. Within seven seconds of the safety belt warning lamp turning off, buckle then unbuckle the safety belt. This will enable the belt minder if disabled or disable belt minder if it is enabled.

7. The following seqyence of events confirm the belt minder is enabled:

*flashing of the safety belt warning belt lamp four times per secong for three seconds

*three seconds with the safety belt lamp off

*flashing the safety belt lamp four times per second for three seconds again

8. The safety belt lamp flashing four times per second for three seconds provides confirmation of belt minder disabled.

9. After confirmation, the deactivation/activation procedureis complete.

This has been double checked with the manual instructions so it is correct. Your welcome in advance. :sunglasse
