The strangest thing happened yesterday... When I removed my seat belt, the seat belt light actually came on! It went off when I turned off the car, and it hasn't come on again since then. So I guess the bulb on the dash isn't burned out after all...

I have a 94 and it comes on any time I have my seat belt off, but no chime.

Yup... that's exactly what happened on mine... but only that one time. It never happened before, and it hasn't happened since. I guess there must be a loose wire or a faulty sensor where the seatbelt attaches. I'm really not that worried about it.

there should be a sensor in the seat too. lets the sytem know someone is in a seat and needs to buckle up. the belt sensor should be in the receptor where u click it in for the belt but if the seat sensor is messing up then it wont come on.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there usually only a sensor in the seat for the passenger seat? I mean, isn't it assumed that if the car is driving, then there's someone sitting in the driver's seat? I don't think the '94 has a sensor for the passenger side. I'm pretty sure the seat belt light on the dash only lights up if the driver isn't wearing his/her seat belt.

could have changed but we used to unplug the seat sensors so the light and buzzer would not come on. back then there was a sensor in each seat. now im not so sure.
