Either there is weight on the other seat or it is shorting out. Try clipping all the seat belt(s) closed and if this 'fixes' the light problem try with undoing the belts one at a time and driving it that way. When the problem comes back then that will be the belt circuit that is the problem. Check for worn cables, loose connections etc.
Try putting your seat belt on before even putting the key in switch and starting the vehicle. It may only be your seat belt alarm dinging. Mine does that very same thing, so I belt up first every time. Then it doesn't do the dinging.
Your seat belts are tied in to your air bag system. Even though your air bags may not have deployed, your seat belt(s) have deployed a one-time use trigger designed to cinch you tightly into your seat in the collision you were in. There is no way to reset them, they will need to be replaced. A used, functioning seatbelt will work, but usually must be of the same year as your car, even if other years appear identical. The wrong year will appear to the on board computer as an error, and will not allow the system to be restored to functional (air bag light will not go off), even though now your seat belt will appear to function. If your air bag light stays on after the bulb-check sequence at startup, it means the system is disabled...the air bag will not function in a crash.
Sometimes there is a wire connection on the seatbelt cover next to the seat on the floor.If there is look inside it to see if there are wire disconnected inside it.It could be the problem just connect them.
There are censors under the seat conecting the seat belt to the harness part it ciukd be something as simple as the conector under the seat has come apart but ifvthe belts faulty you would need to replace it fir an mot as its a failure
check for loose connections on seatbelt stem and under the seat - wires on floor but also under the seat itself. That sensor detects people sitting on seat.
there is a plug in on the bottom of the seat belt buckle check and make sure these are plugged up also try spraying a cleaner down in the buckle to clean the contacts preferably something that dries fast like electronics cleaner.
