Bought my 07 Limited in August of 06. Just ran out to check my door panel when I read your post. Mine looks fine. Good luck with your arbitration.

Seatbelt Chimes - How to disconnect?

Hello All,
I'm a newer owner of a 2007 Avalon Touring... now have 2500 miles on it and the darned seatbelt reminder chimes are killing me... is there an easy way to override or disconnect? I live a bit in the country so just going down the driveway to the mailbox without a belt on is enough to drive you crazy!

Congratulations, I have an 06, so far it's been great. As far as the chimes, yes they can be annoying, especially when one has a wife who take 2 minutes to lock in the seatbelt and by that time they've reached full crescendo. Go back in the posts, this has been previously discussed and answered although I personally do not understand the purpose even with the clatter they make. To me it's buckle up stupid but as previously stated I have a nephew who didn't, I bet he trade that decision so as to be able to walk or use his arms.............Personally my Starion which actually said , fasten you seatbelt was much better.

Easiest way is to buckle up! Statistics show that most accidents happen 4 miles from home. In that case I would move!

Take a look at post 7359 and 7360 to disconnect the chime. I originally disconnected the chime when I bought my car in 2005. This year I had the Transmission TSB performed. My seatbelt chime was reset and now I can not silence it again. Good luck.

From what I have heard on '07s and up Toyota took out the back door procedure of disabling the chime. I guess if I buy another Toyota I will be jumping the sensors in the belt buckles. I don't feel that anyone or car manufacturer should tell me to wear a belt. It is a personal choice. Just be thankful Yotas chime isn't as bad as Ford's "beltminder".

It's your choice to wear a belt or not. However, if you get in a frontal collision those airbags come out with such force that they can kill you. The belt is there to hold you and minimize the impact with the bag or the steering wheel. It's your choice.

If you enter the state of Georgia, you will notice posted along side the highway, "CLICK IT OR TICKET". Ga decided the cost to the taxpayer for public services, including health care for those that don't click it made it their business....few have complained.
Cheers
