Short version of question I posted yesterday - does anyone know how the safety belt reminder system works? I have 1989 745 (B230ET if it make a difference) which is UK specification.

The drivers side safety belt reminder won't go out, even with belt buckled-up. It 'just went wrong' one day, and is so annoying - and distracting - especially as I ALWAYS wear my seat belt.

Tried connecting black and green wires together at the belt stalk - no effect. With exception of blowing fuse for drivers side day running lites (fuse number 22 I think - maybe a coincidence??) Took seat out 'to have a look'. Also appears to be no power up to seat - surely this can't be right? There are 3 wires at seat belt: black, gray, green, Also, at the multi plug under the seat, there is a thick blue wire, which stops at the plug, and doesn't continue up to the seat belt stalk (the thing the buckle goes in to).

Any ideas on how it works, how to fix it, or even how to by-pass the system will be much appreciated.

The fact that I'm writing this Christmas day just shows how much it's annoying me!!

Thanks,

Kevin

HAPPY CHRISTMAS
