Front Seat Outer Belt Assembly

SEAT BELT: FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY: INSPECTION

HINT
* Use the same procedure for the RH and LH sides.
* The procedure listed below is for the LH side.

1. INSPECT FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY LH





CAUTION:
Do not disassemble the retractor.

(a) Before installing the seat belt, check the ELR.

(1) When the inclination of the retractor is 15° or less, check that the belt can be pulled from the retractor. When the inclination of the retractor is over 45°, check that the belt locks. If the operation is not as specified, replace the seat belt assembly.





(b) Check the tension reducer operation.





CAUTION:
Do not apply battery voltage to the pretensioner connector.

(1) Connect the battery's positive (+) lead to terminal 1 (IG) of the tension reducer connector and the negative (-) lead to terminal 2 (L).

(2) Check that an operating sound is heard when the magnetized solenoid is attracting the plunger.

(3) Pull out the seat belt and let it retract. Listen to the operating sound.

(4) Pull out the seat belt again, disconnect the battery's negative (-) lead and let it retract. Listen to the operating sound again and check that the operating sound volume has increased.

If the result is not as specified, replace the outer belt assembly.

(c) for Passenger's Seat only:

Check the fastening function of the child restraint system.

NOTICE:
The check should be performed with the outer belt installed.

(1) When the belt is pulled out fully, the belt should automatically start to retract.

(2) After the belt has fully retracted, the belt should be able to be pulled out and retracted again.

If the operation is not as specified, replace the belt assembly.

2. INSPECT HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE ANCHOR MOTOR LH

HINT
* When removing the anchor motor from the height adjustable anchor, fix the height adjustable anchor's slider so that it does not move out of position. Fix the slider until the motor is reinstalled.
* Use the same procedure for the RH and LH sides.

(a) Disconnect the belt anchor adjuster.





(b) Apply battery voltage and check operation of the belt anchor adjuster.

OK:









(c) Check the PTC operation inside the regulator motor.

NOTICE:
Perform this procedure with the shoulder belt anchor adjuster installed in the vehicle.

(1) Disconnect the driver side shoulder belt anchor adjuster.

(2) Connect the ammeter's positive (+) lead to terminal 5 of the wire harness side connector and the negative (-) lead to the battery's negative terminal.

(3) Connect the battery's positive (+) lead to terminal 5 and negative (-) lead to terminal 3, and slide the anchor to the upward position.

(4) Continue to apply voltage, and check that the current changes to less than 1 A within 6 to 46 seconds.

(5) Disconnect the leads from the terminals.





(6) Approximately 60 seconds later, connect the battery's positive (+) lead to terminal 3 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 5, and check that the shoulder belt anchor adjuster slides to the downward position.

If the result is not as specified replace the motor assembly.
