Seat Belt Buckle: Service and Repair
Safety Belt Buckle - Front
SAFETY BELT BUCKLE - FRONT
Removal and Installation
WARNING: All safety belt assemblies (including retractors, belt tension sensor (BTS) if equipped, buckles, shoulder belt height adjusters [if
equipped], child safety seat tether attachments and attaching hardware) should be inspected after every collision. All new belt assemblies
should be installed unless a qualified technician finds the assemblies show no damage and operate correctly. Belt assemblies not in use during a
collision should also be inspected and new assemblies installed if either damage or incorrect operation is noted. Failure to follow these
instructions could increase the risk of injury in collisions.
NOTE:
-
If a seat equipped with a supplemental restraint system (SRS) component is being serviced, the SRS must be depowered.
-
The air bag warning lamp illuminates when the RCM fuse is removed and the ignition switch is ON. This is normal operation and does not indicate
a SRS fault.
-
The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
-
Repair is made by installing a new part only. If the new part does not correct the condition, install the original part and carry out the diagnostic
procedure again.
-
Seat cushion removed for clarity.
