These two faults maybe unconnected. Starting with the seat belt warning. There should be a switch in the seat to check if someone is sitting in it and a switch in the seat belt catch to check if the seat belt is engaged. If either of these switches or the wiring to them is faulty then the light will come on if the ignition switch is turned on. The airbag warning will come on if there is a problem with the explosive that operates the bag or wiring to it. I would check under the front seats of your car for wiring damage or a not fully engaged plug and socket. These can be damaged or work loose if things have been pushed under the seats.
There is a switch in the seat that operates when someone is sitting on it. This will operate the seat belt warning if someone sits on it and does not do up their seat belt. It appears that this switch is intermittently faulty. If you remove the seat (usually only 4 bolts) you should find the wires to the switch and can either bypass it or replace it.
In the old days, before it became compulsory to wear seat belts, people would simply fit the seat belt into the catch and then sit on them.
To disable the chime, it would need to be located and then disconnected or alternatively be fooled into silence by by-passing the switches.
It would probably be more satisfactory to wear the belts.
Check all your seat belt attachments! This seem to be a leading oroblem with all vehicles that has a few miles on them. All it takes is wasting coffie or soda's into one of those locking mechanisms and it thinks the seat belt is not locked. All these vehicles have seat sensors too! If you sat anything more than 3 to 5 lbs on the seat, it thinks someone is sitting on the seat and the chime will continually go off and drive you nuts. Hope this helps you with your problem Sir
Pull the fuse it won't affect the seatbelts from working correctly. otherwise you have to disconnect each seatbelt lock to find the defaulted lock. As for the airbag light; do you have the type that can be turned off with a key? It may be permanently turn off and needs to be turned back on with the key.
