The best way is to use the seatbelt. DANGER TO LIFE!

If you die, it's not my fault.

Seat belt chime
1. Turn the ignition switch on (without starting car)
2. Press the ODO/TRIP switch until the odometer displays "ODO"
3. Turn the ignition switch off
4. Turn the ignition switch on
5. Press ODO/TRIP switch immediately (within 6 seconds after turning the power switch ON) and hold it down for 10 seconds or more.
6. Continue holding the ODO/TRIP switch and fasten the front seat belt.
7. Check that the odometer displays either "b-on" or "b-off" (it will be "b-on")
8. Press the ODO/TRIP button to change the display to "b-off".
9. Turn the ignition switch off.
10. Turn the ignition switch on while depressing the brake pedal.
11. Check that no buzzer sounds when setting on the front seat.


So sayeth the mighty repair manual... your mileage may vary... items are sold by weight and not by volume, so settlement may have occured during shipment... professional driver on a closed course, do not attempt... etc., ad nauseum. This is not to be construed as legal advice, if you need real legal advice, consult a real lawyer....they need the money!

 

take right hand.. reach up over left shoulder..
pull strap across chest insert metal buckle into slot at right pocket area until you hear a click

no more annoying sounds..

and you will survive a crash..

wear the belt !!!!! LOL

good luck

 

I really appreciate all of the advise. Let assure everyone Ido where my seat belt. The buzzer is such a pain.

 

I like the passenger seatbelt alarm. If you have those friends that don't like to wear a seat belt, the alarm basically makes them. Plus, i tell them if the beeping stops, that is when the ejector seat kicks in.

 

AMEN, I don't have to sound like a square all the time, I just gotta tell em it's not gonna stop otherwise. lol

 

Still works on the 2010 Vehicles. Annoying when you've got a computer bag, or the like, in the front seat. Having arim rests helped in the process.

 

Okay - I'll admit it. I tried RoverGGMs odo trick. I was pretty sure it was a joke, but I really wanted to get rid of that damn beeper.

I don't drive without it, but sometimes i'm just moving around camp or putting through the airport at 15 mph and I don't want to put the damn thing on and off a hundred times.

 

Tried numerous times but can't seem to make it work on my 2011.:flame:

 

Did you have weight on left butt cheek only? I heard it also works better when a Corona is positioned properly in the front cup holder.

 

On my 2011 FJ the owners manuel says you must take it to a dealer to have it the seatbelt chimes turned off.

 

You don't.
It probably also says to have all maintenance performed at the dealership :lol:

 

Well one things for sure...

Since I keep a bag on the passenger seat I'd like to disable the alarm but it doesn't work on a 2012 model. If I'm in error I'd admit it but I printed out the instructions and followed them diligently and achieved negative results. Epic fail here. Anyone got any alternatives other than ripping out or cutting the wiring?

 

that trick does not work on new models.

grab one these off ebay ...

 

Have it turned off in the ECU

 

I don't want to turn it permanently off. Just when I've got a bag up front.

I want the vehicle to work properly airbags and all when I've got a passenger or my Wife in it. I want the airbags to work then. She's too good lookin' not to have them on.

$5.99 isn't so bad. Thanks guys. I thought it would be more.

 

My dealer here in Baltimore MD, Jerry's Toyota, refuses to turn it off. They trying to tell me it will interfere with the air bag. Frustrating.

 

The odo trick worked on my 2010 TT. One of my favorite mods.

Looks like I'm buckling in the passenger belt first before I put my bag in or just ignore it for the first minute.

A dealer will charge me and I'm too cheap for it...

And the TRD belt extenders aren't compatible with the 2012 model from what Ebay says.

Either way, I thank all of you for your input.

 

In the electrical section of the forum their is a post of how to perminantly disable all chimes. Or just do a search for perminantly dissable all chimes. This may help

 

Rover: Thank you. I don't need an annoying electronic buzzer to tell me anything. When I'm slowly driving around my farm it drives me nuts. Now for the door buzzer so I can open the driver door while the stereo is on?

 

The post about the perminantly disable all chimes is only for up to 2010. I have a 2011 and cut the wires. All worked but the one for the passenger seat. I reconnected that one but have no idea what it was for. They changed the wiring somewhat in the 2011 and up.

 

Just had my '12 done the other day. Could have heard a pin drop when I told the service dept. that I wanted to have the seat belt dinger thing turned off. "I don't think we can do......" I cut him off and told him its in the book, you can do it, make it go away. Then it was "we'll have to charge you". I don't care, make it stop. No more dinger thing.

 

I'd have argued the charge but glad you got it worked out for yourself

 

cheap on ebay for those that dont want to cut wires..

 

no cutting of wires or paying toyota necessary..

turn ignition 1 time (dont turn the truck on) , hold ODO and count slowly to 14, plug in seatbelt (while still holding down the ODO) when you get to 14, it will say "ON" hit the ODO till it says "OFF"

i've done this 3 or 4 times on different FJs. it works every time.

 

Have you done it on a 2010+ truck? I'm pretty sure I've heard people comment that it didn't work on the newer trucks

 

It works on m 2010. I have to do it everytime I d/c the negative from the battery.

Works on my '10 TTSE as well as an 11
Haven't tried the 12 or 13
Let me find that thread

Just did the abbreviated version - worked first time!

From the off position,
1) Turn key to ON
2 Within 6 Seconds, press and HOLD the odometer button
3) Wait 12-14 seconds (1 one-thousand, 2 one-thousand...)
7) Buckle your seatbelt
8) Let go of the odometer button and press it again
9) Wait a few seconds until it clears and goes back to the odometer with your milage.
*10) my sanity has returned. Well, no worse than it was before the "incident"

I can't get it to work on my 2012 TT. When I let off the odo button it goes to the trip A reading and does nothing.

 

did not work on my 2012 either. can i disconnect the buzzer or speaker. i could not find one under the dash where the noise comes from. does anyone know where it is located. thanks:flame:

 

Thanks Again Rover.. You saved a lot of people's lives today from me going manic. I might die, but you saved so many others. lol :bigthumb:
