Seatbelt won't rewind, any solutions?

Featured Replies

If it's stuck all the way out, you could try taking it apart and seeing if the mechanism is just jammed.

 

If it's just retracting really slowly, or not at all, try taking it apart and winding the spring a bit tighter.

 

Unfortunately, the plastic cog in mine had numerous cracks in it and had shattered, meaning I needed to get another one from AndyZ.

    Could it be on the electrical side?, ie; the belt retracts when you press the release button on the stalk. mabe it could be in this area?

    It's worth hanging onto your seat belt.

     

    If you wear one you can drive after eight pints.

     

    If a copper every questions this, just tell them Craig David said it was ok and you'll be on your way. ;)

    Why not? It's pretty easy and there's not a lot you can do wrong.

    Mine did this. A small spring in the mechanism had come off because the plastic it was attached to had snapped. I used a match stick and some super glue to fix it and it was fine. If yours is the same then when you take a look you'll see the problem straight away.
