Seat Belt Light

[Tecky]

I can see on the clocks a picture which seems is a seat belt warning light but I've never actually seen it light up. Bulb gone or for some reason is it not meant to?

[DICKO1]

optional extra maybe???

[Tecky]

No idea, would be a daft option though, considering it's just a light for safety, so surely should be standard?

Does yours work?

Mine lights up and chimes over about 15mph if you leave the seatbelt unfastened ??

it was deleted for certain models and certain model years.

I've never drove over 15mph with the seat belt unfastened so never heard of the chimes, assuming I would get them.

At what stage does your light up? Every time you prime the ignition or only if you start the car with drivers seat belt unfastened?

I don't think I've ever started the car with my seat belt not fastened but I have with the passengers not fastened (no passenger) and the light has never come on.

it was deleted for certain models and certain model years.

Do you know what years/models? Mines a 2008/57 plate, post above yours he said his works and is a 2008 model judging by his sig?

Anyone else have any more info on this?

Thanks for the info.

Someone in this thread posted that his does work and chimes over 15mph, so can't be true that VXR's didn't come with it?

the seat occupancy sensor was removed from later models of VXR, probley the same time the the coolent level, screenwash indicators went.

What year do you mean by later models?


Vauxtillidie's VXR is an 06 plate wouldn't that be a earlier model?

[vxrmartyn]

i think it got removed on either the 56 or 06 plates.
