Whats up guys?
I have a 93 max that I purchased in 2000. Last fall I noticed that when I am driving the car, the seatbelt light on the dash lights and the bell dings for a few seconds, just as it would if I had just started the car. After a few minutes the indicator will go out and may come back on later with the bell dinger. I have no other electrical problems with the car and the car runs good otherwise.
Is there some type seatbelt sensor that feeds the computer that may be faulty, or may I some problem with a bad wire or connection. Does anyone have any info on how this system works, or maybe a schematic of this portion of the electrical system.
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks, Jeff

... I have no other electrical problems with the car and the car runs good otherwise.... bad wire or connection. ...
No other prblms!? Luckiest guy...
Seat switch or wirings... Look under the seat: few connectors hanging, depending on configuration. Disconnect one after another until u find the right one.
PS. If u have airbag, dont touch the yel wires. Open the batt negative ½ hour before if u have to disconnect any yel (=airbag) wires.For schemas try www.carfiche.com or www.autozone.com . If the wires are disconnected, airbag light will come on and stay, until it has been reset (=½hour batt disconnection is reset to all maxima computers)
