Rear seat belt alarm

[CypressPhil]

Hey guys, does anyone know the list of things connected to the rear seat belt alarm? For example, I’m guessing the seats have pressure sensors, then sensors in the seat belt fasteners, then maybe the door switches for the courtesy lights. Anything else in the sequence? I’m getting phantom rear selt belt warnings if the back doors are opened for any reason. Even if nothing is put on the seats, if the rear door is opened, the next time the car is started it triggers the annoying warning. Switching the car off and on clears it until the next time the rear doors are opened. I was going to order a carista to disable the chime, but though if it’s just a switch, I could swap it out and fix it. I’m guessing it’s the door switches.

No fault - the rear belt warning is unsophisticated, there are no pressure sensors on the rear seats so it is fooled sometimes. However unless a seat belt is unfastened you shouldn't get an audible warning - maybe one of the belt sensors is playing up (worth buckling / unbuckling each of the rear belts a few times to clean up the switch contact).

I have an issue with mine that I carry our dog in the back of the car with a seat belt restraint which is plugged into one of the seat belts sockets. The dog can pull quite hard on the restraint sometimes which pulls the seat belt socket upwards from the seat. Once unplugged the seat belt alarm sometimes goes off. Pushing the seat belt socket back down again stops it. Whether it's slightly faulty wiring on the socket due to the dog pulling it I'm not quite sure but pushing it back down always stops it. If you've had people in the back of the car worth a check.
