#2
Mine goes away as soon as I put it on.

First answer is correct but it can be done although your dealer probably won't do it for you. Their advice will probbly be to Google it - and I believe that will give you the answer.
Enjoy the new car.

Surprising that Lexus doesn't have a system comparable to VW/Audi groups VCDS tool. The tool is a computer ran diagnostic software that is far, far superior to a standard OBDII system. In that tool it allows the user to customize, configure, and troubleshoot any single part of the car; from the way windows roll down to how much compression is in cylinder 10. I used that tool to delete the door chime and seatbelt chime in my other vehicles. I don't drive without a seatbelt I just didn't like the annoying whine when keeping the door open to do something, or to drive to the mailbox or move the car.

Not endorsing this but if it's just the passenger seat problem when you have something sitting on it they do sell seat belt buckle alarm clasp stopper on ebay for $7.90. It's a dummy buckle that you stick in.

I guess I missed part of it when I copied and pasted it.

Thanks for the replies
I checked with the dealer and they won't do it even though it can be done...bummer.
When I go in for my 5k I will tell them about my 80lb dog and see if I can change their mind!
I will order one of those seat belt buckle alarm clasp stoppers and that should do the trick.
Thanks

Your dealer techs probably shouldn't do this for you but mine referred me to the google solution which worked quite well except it only worked for the driver's seat not the passenger seat. That was good enough for me as all I wanted is to silence the chime between the mail box and my house. I do think the both sides can be disabled though with the correct procedure.
On my last two Lexus - 2007 and 2010 it was a setting that the dealers could and did do for me after I referred them to the owner's manual. I have been a seat belt user for about 55 years and don't mind a reminder but the chimes always irritate me. And the reminder light still does work without the chime disabled.
It could be worse - I remember the short-lived starter interlock systems in the 70's. It was also quite easy to just unplug those systems though - not so anymore.
