Video tutorial

In this video, we can see how to disable the warning sound for an unbuckled seatbelt in a vehicle from the V.A.G. group (which includes Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, and Skoda). We slide the driver's seat (this is a right-hand drive; obviously, for left-hand drives, it will be the passenger seat) all the way back: we will find a small cover in the sliding rails where there are two connectors: the yellow one is for the airbag and should not be touched, but the black one is for the seatbelt warning.

So, let's disconnect it, and then when we get back in the car, the seatbelt "beep" is gone. However, the YouTuber wants to ensure that the connector doesn't have any other connections besides that one, and by testing it with a multimeter, he verifies that this is indeed the case.

Operation successful.
