Seat Belt Warning Timer: Description and Operation

The safety belt buckle which is attached to the driver seat is fitted with a switch, which is connected through the wiring harness to a warning indicator which is housed within the instrument cluster and a buzzer (depending on market options) which is contained within the central timer module. When the ignition is first turned on the warning indicator will illuminate only if the safety belt is not fastened. If the safety belt is fastened before the ignition is turned on the circuit is broken and the indicator will remain off.
