Finally got the seatbelt chime to turn off. The directions given by Eternity3G are great but they didn't seem to work for me...so...I made one minor change. I held the ODO button down for 30 seconds instead of ten. Worked like a charm.

Hi guys
I've problem with my subwoofer in GS III 2006 Mark Levi. I cant enter the Audio to change F, R, W settings. I press the Climate and Audio buttons and turn on/off the light 3 times. Can you explain me to get in Service Mode Audio?

hi ,friend i ll tell you that i made the steps just like you post it more than ones & there is no way to reset the oil maint light,please can you help ? ,what appear in my odo meter is( OIL MAINT REQD ) thanks
It works, make sure your not on Trip A or B:
Reset Maintenance Required Light
1. With your car OFF, place your key in the ignition and turn to ""On"". Do not start the car.
2. Find the odometer button and press until it reads the total odometer setting, (not the Trip A or Trip B setting).
3. Turn the key to OFF.
4. Place your finger back on the odometer button, press and hold. At the same time, turn the key back to ""On"".
5. Hold the odometer button in until the MAINT REQD light goes out...should take about 8-10 seconds.

You're going to need to take the door panels and mirrors off before you can get to the puddle lights. This DIY shows the details. Removing the panels is simple, but pay close attention when putting them back on. It's easy to misalign the fasteners that hold them to the door.
Just by pulling the mirror would be not enough?

CAK 500, Thanks comrade

On the GS, if your headlights are on, and you use the windshield washers, the headlamp washers will automatically activate once.
I used this DIY - http://my.is/forums/f64/isx50-switch...ashers-341199/ on my previous IS250 to solve the problem.
Is it possible to use the same DIY on GS ???
I want "the only time the headlamp washers will activate is when you press the headlamp washers button.."

If the ignition is off, and the doors are closed, you cannot do step 3. unless you push the START button. You simply cannot do step 3. I have a 06 GS300 and the seatbelt buzzer kills me. I can;t stand it.
So i tried it different ways and no luck. What is the solution?
Thanks in advance.

get in and shut door
turn engine on, set odo/trip to odo. may want to make sure it is set to odo using steering wheel also, and then turn off engine.
take foot off brake, press start button twice (dont turn on engine)
hold down odo button for about 10 sec while you also put on your seat belt.
from there, follow the post
