stupid auto seat belt not working


Recommended Posts

Hmmm, I guess I need to pay more attention to the forum its posted in...

 

Does the door dinger button work right on that side. IIRC the belts get their signal to opperate from them. That would be the first place I looked.

 

Or you could go to a j/y and find some 85-89 gl/dl manual belts and pillar trim.

its the switch that turns on the dome light. Small rubber boot, about the size of a quarter at the base and the size of a dime at the top. Not a round boot, it has an oval base to it, but the plunger switch inside it (and the waffled "top" part of the boot) is round.

 

Not incredibly easy to replace; (not DIFFICULT but I expected quick and simple which it wasnt) my car had just enough wire attached to the switch to barely remove it from the hole. I had to pull the interior trim piece off to expose enough wiring to replace the switch on my driver door. You can just use one from one of the back doors, or go to the boneyard for a replacement.
