Are you sure it is the seat belt warning chime ( should also have the seat belt indicator on the cluster ) ?

When you turn the key from off to run ( do not start ), does the airbag indicator illuminate ?

The yellow airbag indicator does illuminate. it has the red seatbelt indicator as well. i have had the dinger disabled since i bought it with the procedure in the owners manual

The warning chime is disabled and it is going off with the seat belt attached ?

You have never changed the battery since 2002 ?

I purchased the vehicle in 2004 and have changed the battery. I dont recall ever needing to re do the disable method though.
