seat belt switch

[pistol pete]

Hi all
When I first got my car most of the time it didn't believe that the seat belt was in and beeped all the bleeding time

So got a resistor apparently the correct one and removed the seatbelt plug in and tried it..
On fault reader it still says not connected so tried the resistor my garage always uses for this sort of thing same again..
Code reader resets fault but still says seatbelt switch not connected..

When the seatbelt is working and plugged in is there a resistance or is it a straight short?
Any help would be great cheers as now no beeping just the airbag warning light as its part of that system

Cheers

Take resistor out and code car with SSS v32 and switch beep off.

Personally I'd fix it so that in the event of an accident then all the systems including airbags, seat pre-tensioners, etc. work correctly.

Not worth the risk of bodging it.
