I just got my LS about 2 weeks ago. I am sick of the seat belt alarm. I have heard there is a sequence to turn it off in the owners manual, however I do not have a manual. Can anyone help me out please?

:slam
 
Hate to play the role of "seat belt police" but you should just put the seat belt on. Trust me, it may save your life someday. Ok, I'm off the soap box now. I think there is a way to turn it off, I'm just not sure exactly.
 
i tried the whole sequence deal on my 2001..never got it to work. so i just disconnected it. just feel down the right of the seat and you should see a connection. very simple
 
Thanks for the help. I wear the seat belt but when I am in a drive up line and I need to reach out and then thing goes off it gets pretty annoying.

Remember - if you are not wearing your seatbelt - then all the fancy airbags in the LS are also disabled....

WOW - Do people really get hurt worse w/o a seatbelt with an airbag deploying enough to have it turn off??

I wear mine even going down the road a block or two, but MAN totally off on the bags???
 
Yes - same with the sensor in the seat - if the LS cannot determine that you are in the proper position - it will not deploy the airbag. The seatbelt is part of 'keeping you in the proper position'.

That is 100% correct! DO NOT SCREW AROUND WITH THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM!!! You would hate to be responsible for injurying someone else riding in or driving your car. Let alone yourself....

That is ridiculous, air bags were invented for unrestrained passengers.

Speaking of ridiculous...that statement wins the prize. There isn't a restraint system in the world that doesn't give you a complete warning about it's dangers if you DON'T have the seat belts on. Quite honestly, the air bags could kill you if you didn't have your seat belts on.

I would like to see something in writing Dutch supporting that statement.
