dummy light seatbelts

in the center dummy console, the stupid seatbelt light comes on every 5 seconds while driving and usually stays on the hole time im driving, its been kinda beeping annoyingly ever since i got the car in august, and im about to just cut the wire to the seatbelt light.

Any suggestions?
thanks
Jeff

sometimes just jiggle the strap or pull it out away from you and then let it return to its position and it might stop. i had the seatbelt recall done last year and once a month or so the light beeps, but i just pull on the belt once and it goes away...

I had this fixed on my rx7. It's the sensor/retractor switch in the seat belt retractor between the seats. There is an updated sensor that permanently fixes this. Ask mazda for part # FC01-57-924 and check alldata.com if you need the repair info.

Note alldata's not free, but it's well worth getting a subscription for your car.

Love my autobelts. Adds to the whole sports car experience and the mazdaspeed seat belt pads work better with the autobelts.
