Fasten seat belt warning

Post by MarkW » Thu Apr 11, 2013 9:19 pm

I keep getting a Fasten Seat Belt warning and audio signal. This happens randomly, I can be in the car alone with nothing on the other seats. (I used to have a Z4 that would go off with a bag of shopping on the passenger seat).
Anyone else had this problem. Thankfully the audio warning stops after about a minute :(

Seem to remember something about this being talked about on the old site. Hopefully someone will be along with more info. In the mean time just keep the belt 'plugged' to cancel the warning going of  ;)

"Plugged". Do you just mean done up?

Thanks, sorry about the above. I was trying to get a pic at the bottom of my posts like I've seen others do.

The link obviously helped, once you copy the whole bit! For your info, copy and paste it into the bit with your sig writing and hey presto.
Enough miracles for one day, early start again 2moro. Thanks again.
The hover bit doesn't work on an iPad, had to find the image info on the right.
