Seatbelt warning.

[robertb]

In the last week or so, I've been getting loads of random seatbelt warnings on the dash. It appears to believe that there's someone sat in the back with no seatbelt on (first red icon flashing on the dash).
The constant pinging is driving me nuts!!
There isn't a single thing sat on the seats. Has anyone else has this with a 2022 PFL?
Any info on a fix would be gratefully received

Do up the offending seatbelt.

There's obviously a problem with the pressure sensor or its associated wiring so you'd probably need to remove the seat to check this out. If it's not on the exclusion list you should be approaching your dealer with a warranty claim.

Yea I think I'll give them a ring and see what they say.

In the meantime have a look at the bottom of the rear seatbelt buckles/latches (can't think of what to call them, the things it goes into)

There's a wire on the bottom of them and the connector isn't that robust so it's possible it's been pulled out/making a bad connection, if you are lucky you can just push on it, and it will behave itself until you can get to a dealer.

I bought seatbelt extensions and they made the car think I was always in my seat and it would not go back enough to make easy access and exit. So don’t get them if you have a im5 like me. They worked ok on my Trophy. Cost me £10 a pair any trophy drivers in Bexley?

Did you leave the extension plugged into the socket at the seat end or attached to the belt end ?

They would have to be plugged in at the seat end to make the car think he was always in his seat.

Exactly.

Yes I did leave it in the socket. Defeats the objective to remove the extension from socket
