I know I don't belong here anymore but this is the best website around for information, also I have searched the forums but am unable to find any info on this sorry if I havn't looked well enough lol. I just recently brought a BF II Xr8 ute absolutely love it but the seatminder drives me nuts when im backing out my long driveway etc... Anyway ive tried about 3 methods, ignition on press and hold hazards buckle and unbuckle seatbelt release hazards, ignition on seatbelt buckled un buckled 9 times and also cycling the ignition key 9 times but none of them work?!?! Do I need to take it to fraud and get them to disable it??

Once again sorry if I am bring up old topics but I couldn't find them if you know of previous threads point me in the direction of them .. and thanks!

This one definitely worked for me in my BF ute...

ignition on seatbelt buckled un buckled 9 times

From memory turn to 'on' and wait for all the normal warning lights to go out, then buckle/unbuckle nine times, wait for seatbelt light to go out, then turn ignition off. Has to be done with all doors closed too I think.

Great thing about to SZ Terry (maybe the FGII as well) is that the reminder doesn't go off until you go over 25 km/h.

Found it!!

1/Park brake on.
2/Gearshift in Park(Auto),Neutral(Manual)
3/Ignition in "OFF" position.
4/All doors closed.
5/Buckle Drivers seat belt.
6/Turn ignition to the "ON" position(Do not start the engine).
7/Wait until the seat belt warning light turns off.
8/Press and "HOLD" Hazard button.
9/Unbuckle drivers seat belt.
10/Buckle drivers seat belt.
11/Release Hazard button.
Confirmation of disabling the belt minder is provided by seat belt warning lamp flashing 5 times.
To re enable it simply carry out the same procedure.

Did that work for you? From memory with the AU it used the hazards button, but not b-series.

But if it does the job then happy days.
