Haval F5 seat belt not reminding reasons: 1. Damaged seat belt socket; 2. Pressure sensor not detecting. The Haval F5 is an entry-level compact SUV, featuring a 12.3-inch full-color digital LCD instrument panel and a 9-inch HD LCD touch screen. It is equipped with the Interconnect 3.0 system, including remote vehicle control, online services, and intelligent voice interaction system. Online functions include navigation, music, and more. The Haval F5 uses MacPherson independent suspension for the front arms and double-wishbone independent suspension for the rear arms, with ventilated disc brakes for both front and rear wheels. The vehicle's dimensions are 4470mm in length, 1857mm in width, and 1638mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2680mm.
I often help friends fix their cars. The seatbelt reminder not working is quite common on the Haval F5. The usual causes are the sensor under the seat getting stuck or loose—vehicle vibrations can easily cause this. It could also be dirty electronic contacts in the seatbelt buckle, where dust buildup leads to poor connection, or a short circuit or break in the wiring connected to the dashboard. A blown fuse is another possibility. You can do a quick check before driving: open the car door, crouch down to see if there’s any obstruction under the seat sensor, try inserting and removing the seatbelt a few times to listen for sounds, or check the car manual for the fuse location and test it with a replacement. If none of these work, the control module might be faulty and require professional diagnostic tools. Don’t forget that a malfunctioning seatbelt reminder increases accident risks—address it early to avoid regrets.
