Door Chime, not seat belt chime

[toy4rick]

Hey all

 

2017 Legacy Limited

Keyless start

 

Put car in park, shut down car, remove seat belt, open door... Chime sounds until the door is closed. I have tried pushing the door shut button by my left hip, it does stop the chime but when I release the button, the chime returns. My guess is, the door shut button must be pushed for a long-er period of time

 

If during the chime the passenger door is opened, the chime stops, go figure

 

I haven't found a combination yet to prevent the door chime

 

Any ideas?

test your door switch and see if it is actually working right

I might have found the issue, it really is an order of shutdown

 

If the seat belt comes off prior to being placed into park, the door will chime when opened. If park is first, belt second, no chime

 

Now why the passenger door terminates the chime is anyone's guess

 

I'll keep playing with it

My door chime bothers me as well a bit but it has nothing to do with my seat belt. If I open the door a millisecond before I hit the the stop button, it will chime when the car shuts down until I close it or open another door.

Sounds like my issue. Be sure to put the car in park before you unlatch your seat belt

 

Works for me

I typically stop at the mail box and take off the seat belt to get the mail. Don't put it on for the 20 ft till I park. So it pretty much comes on every time!

Well I think I actually found out what was causing my door chime

 

Opening the door prior to putting it in park, once the button is pushed, the chime starts. It was not a park/seat belt/button sequence

 

Enjoy
