Troubleshooting Hints

1. Check Fuse 19 by visual inspection.
2. If the Seat Belts remain loose with RH front door closed, check for a shorted Door Latch Switch.
3. If one belt remains taut with Door Latch Switch operated, check CKT 528 and CKT 150 to the suspected belt solenoid for an open.
^ Check for a broken (or partially broken) wire inside of the insulation which could cause system malfunction but prove "GOOD" in a continuity/voltage check with a system disconnected. These circuits may be intermittent or resistive when loaded, and if possible, should be checked by monitoring for a voltage drop with the system operational (under load).
^ Check for proper installation of aftermarket electronic equipment which may affect the integrity of other systems (refer to General Troubleshooting Procedures). Diagnostic Aids
^ Refer to System Diagnosis. System Diagnosis
