97 Sentra GXE, Seat Belt Light - Does it exist?

One peculiar thing that I've noticed about my 97 Sentra GXE ever since I bought it is that there is no seat belt warning light on my dash that comes on when the car is started, when the seat belt is unbuckled, or whenever. There is an Airbag light that comes on for several seconds when the car is started, but that's about it. I remember in my 96 Altima GXE, there was a seat belt warning light that stuck on whenever the belt was unbuckled. Does this car have a seat belt light?

Yeah, there should be a plug underneath the drivers side seat. Mine got disconnected somehow...

Ahhh okay, so I guess the last person who owned my car was as invincible as you then.

I'll have to look for that plug, thanks.

Dont get me wrong, I put my seatbelt on every time I get in the car. I just dont like to be reminded to do what is habbit.

Ahhh I see

I checked the connector under the seat today, and it is actually plugged in. So it must be either the bulb or a fuse??

so THATS what that stupid thing is. anyone know if it will interfere with the airbag system at all? O.o

I'm assuming they're not interlinked ... my Airbag light stills comes on for a few seconds at startup as it's supposed to.
