Have a 1991 Acura Integra GS. Passenger automatic (passive) restraint seatbelt works fine but chimes when the car is on, door is closed, no one in passenger seat, with or without the seatbelts hooked up. How can I get it to stop chiming? Can I get to the striker and adjust it?

Simple “fix” somewhere under your seat there should be a connector for the chime to remind you to belt-in, just unconnect it and should resolve the chime.

Interestingly enough when I looked under the seat there was a connector----already disconnected. So I plugged it in, tried again & it now only chimes correctly! Thanks! Jan
