Seatbelt Minder - Even When Buckled

[thesnowback]

I have this issue in my SuperDuty too. I get the red seatbelt not connected messages, but how do I get rid of the GREEN message that tells me seatbelts are connected? I dont ever want to see that. I dont want to have to acknowledge it everytime I drive. So now the lawyers have it set up to nag you even when you have your belt connected.

I belive there is a setting that needs to be modified via Forscan to eliminate the seat belt minder

Found it for ya @thesnowback
“Borrowed” from another forum. Although initially “borrowed” from the Ranger forum, my understanding is this works for the Raptor as well.

If you buckle up and just start driving, it will clear on its own. No need to acknowledge. Takes a minute, but it disappears. I just ignore it completely.

Yeah it does go away, but why does it need to tell me I’m seatbelted, when it always tells me if I’m not seatbelted? Smh

My guess, Ford built a system that also lets you know who else may be unbuckled in your Bronco. It throws a green check for you, but it’s also showing you the status of the other 3 seats. Parents don’t need to look back to see if their kids are buckled, cause it’s displayed on the screen. Yes, an annoyance for those of us without kids, but I see the logic.
