    When camping, I always end up packing stuff on the passenger front seat and it activates the seat belt sensor as if someone were sitting there and that annoying chime will periodically ring out. Is there a way to disable the chime without clicking the seatbelt in. Is there a fuse, or a plug under the seat or something that I can pull to disable it?

    I went the Carista route.
    On the plus side:
    • the chime is always disabled.
    • many other adjustments can be made as well.

    On the minus side:
    • the seatbelt light stays illuminated in the instrument cluster.
    • more expensive option

    You can turn off the chime with software such as techstream or carista
