Wow cool.

El enrrollador o muelle, posee un agujero en la tapa de plástico, allí se puede instalar un pin en un agujero del eje del muelle, este como seguro retenedor, la cual bloqueará el muelle en su posición, conservando su enrrollador con presión, este pin como seguro, no se debe retirar hasta cuando se arme de nuevo. Por lo que opino, que no es necesario desmontar la parte posterior, donde se encuentran los 2 resorte, por tener acceso total a los baleros. Aun que será el especialista, quien decida desarmarlo. Espero haber aportado a tan importante video. Dándole un 👍 me gusta.

Many thanks! The mechanism is very similar to that of a 2005 Mustang, and this video was very useful when mine jammed. The root cause of that was a small piece of glass (from the back window being blown out by a tree limb falling on it!) had wedged underneath the captured ball bearing (at 2:02 in the bottom left.) One thing I will add is that when removing the white plastic cap for the retractor mechanism, you can reduce the resistance for prying with a screwdriver. On mine (and it looks like this one as well) each of the three 'tabs' (referenced at 1:55) inserted into the metal body are hollow, and have a small plastic 'post' insert in the middle. Using a small punch and tapping that post out from the bottom make it easier to pop that off with less prying and risk of damage.

Thanks for this! I’ve installed a replacement belt following this guide. The replacement belt was locked up because the seller didn’t install a clip. I unlocked it according this video and installed it. However the new belt keeps locking up. To unlock it I can sometimes pull the belt really hard and then it unlocks. If that doesn’t help I have to pull the belt, adjust the seat hight in order to get more room and the very gently let the belt retract. TL;DR: the replacement belt is far to sensitive. Is this something that can be adjusted?

@FixCarYourself

2 жыл бұрын

Glad this helped! You could adjust the winder. Look at the 7:45 min area of this video. Once the winder can't turn anymore you'll know its tight...so instead you could turn it one rotation and then put those 3 screws back into place. Although I have never tried this before, I've heard this is what people do to make it feel "looser." Normally I would just leave it as is even though its really sensitive.

One more thing to mention is to make sure the belt buckle is installed correctly and properly. If not precise that could also be the problem. Here is a different video I made that shows how I installed it. Hopefully this helps as well. 👉 kzread.info/dash/bejne/aXiIo7eaZce-Y6w.html

Do i need to lubricant the mechanism before installing? Or it can collect dirt?

@FixCarYourself

Жыл бұрын

Thier isn't any kind of lubrication on here that I'm aware of. Dirt shouldn't get inside because the mechanism is sealed inside once you put the cover plate on it.

The actual seat belt plate broke on my driver side last night. It’s stuck inside the buckle and the strap just hangs freely from the driver door 😮. Is it possible to just replace the seat belt plate (part that goes into the buckle) ? I feel i need a new seatbelt altogether from junk yard

@FixCarYourself

6 ай бұрын

Not sure, it depends upon the manufacturer and when it was made, as well as the ability to get the components for that seat belt. But the real question is why would that break to begin with. And because I'm asking that question. I would just replace the whole thing as that part might be currently fragile or compromised. Safety is important, so I would get a new one or a gently used/restored one.

Gracias, reparé uno, pero realicé una solvencia legal, la cual dice que lo hice a solicitud del propietario y con el concentimiento de pérdida total de garantias y seguro.

What's the point to remove a metal balls and put them back? Is it important or no?

@FixCarYourself

5 ай бұрын

Yes very important. During a crash an electrical current or gas is released which hits the balls and activates the seat belt. Keeping you safe and locked in place. I wouldn't remove the balls and just leave them in. If you do remove, then at that point for safety purposes just get a brand new seat belt.

He is whispering because everything he has shown you to do is illegal and he doesn’t want you to know if you get caught doing any of this, you will go to jail. He is only telling you little bits of the process. He hasn’t told you for instance, that if you accidentally allow the spring to unwind at speed, it can turn keep turning and rewind an number of turns in reverse. If your belt is jammed and you can’t unjam it with out pulling it apart, then through it away. How much is your safety worth??? I’ve seen enough unsafe belts in my time to know that people who do this sort of thing don’t always put them together correctly. And then they sell the car to some unsuspecting person. Don’t do it!
