If your seat belt won't retract or if it's slow to retract, this will usually fix it 99% of the time.
So before spending a lot of money to replace your costly seat belt assembly, try this first. Like I said, it works almost 99% of the time for a seat belt that won't retract or is slow to retract.

This video has saved me $700 at a mechanic shop they told me I had to have the entire seat belt mechanism replaced and I was like no I am not paying that amount it’s too much and I finally decided to fix it on my own by doing my research and this really helped me out a lot it worked! Thank you so much 🤝🏻

@laurenchinisci5348 Месяц назад

This worked perfectly! I didn’t even have to use soap. I just wet a microfiber towel and wiped it down quickly. Thank you!

@janetalcott-rt2ie Год назад

I have 2015 Silverado that the both of them would not retract at all and I cleaned them like you did and they fly back up now THANKS for the great video👍👍

Mike I have the SOLSTICE, and I have learned so much about it just by watching your videos. Thank you

@wusthof641 Год назад

Just your train of thought, try the easy way 1st which I will try this weekend. Thx much

@lukashlr 10 месяцев назад

The cause of this could also be that retracting spring in belt mechanism and this can be adjust ...

@terryansell6641 2 года назад

Greetings from New Zealand I tried your idea and it worked thank you

@sammancini Год назад

thanks mate it worked well. what i also found is after cleaning i applied a water based silicone spray to the seat belt that dries without a residue and it helped a lot too.

@leigh6507 4 дня назад

Seems to be a convertible issue from being exposed to the elements. Will try on my 124 Spider this weekend. Thank you!

Dude you made it to the second google recommendation when you search seat belt wont retract!

@kevinthebespectacledpilgrim Месяц назад

This no doubt works, but you can also spray the retraction mechanism with rapid drying silicone spray lubricant. I’ve used this method successfully on rear seat restraints.

@Rockjock007 4 месяца назад

@sly8056 27 дней назад

Your seatbelt works, so showing this method does not prove that it repairs a seat belt that doesn’t retract.

@benjaminmorales1066 2 года назад

Awesome fix. Have you run into the passenger airbag sensor code pop up? If you have, how did you fix this ? I’ve tried the 360 emulator, no luck.

@MikesHouseOfMods 2 года назад

Thanks. And no, I haven't run into any airbag issues. And this is even after taking out the passenger seat as well as swapping my steering wheel. Inside have the airbag recall done, though.

@chrisburchfield7300 2 года назад

The air bag is a recall item. I received a notice from GM in the mail. I took it to the dealership and had to wait for 2 weeks for it to come in. It was free of charge. The module is around 800 bucks and has to be married to the BCM.

@LLF1234 Год назад

One tip I've seen on other videos is also to clean/sand a little bit of the plastic on the pillar loop. In your car, it would be where the seatbelt enters the body around your shoulder area. What happens is this part gets seat belt "powder" accumulated over the years, and it also slows down the retraction a lot. This guy explains it better than I did: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ghan-Q1h8x8.html

@PurpleDragonProsperity Год назад

But the seatbelt needs to lock for it to save a life from the brand new vehicle. It didn't look like it is locking. The belt might retract back but, if it does not lock what good is it?

@mousetrap8790 Год назад

How does cleaning the seatbelt without touching the mechanism going to mess with the locking mechanism

@judeanaya414 Год назад

You gotta push the brakes for it to lock!

Wish he would cover how to fix a BROKEN seat belt retractor

@genericdude6551 2 года назад

Heh, I thought it was just my make/model of car. Anyway, I hope this helps because they don't make seatbelts for my car anymore. Not to mention OEM seatbelts are expensive and aftermarket ones are much cheaper but they say to use them at your own risk even though they claim they meet federal highway standards but they aren't certified by the government. Just don't get in an accident, right?

@99thejackal Год назад

Mines wont retract but cleaning doesnt make it retract 🤦‍♂️

@AmberSmith-p8r 8 месяцев назад

This did not help for someone whose seat belt does not retract. Your seat belt DOES retract. Mine is completely slack with 0 retract. Make accurate video titles

@williamhillyard-mf3mn 8 месяцев назад

It's called "research" for a reason. Doesn't fit your needs, move on to the next video. I don't believe there's a need to be aggressive towards the creator. Going through the comments, he's helped a lot of people with this. Hope you find the fix that suits your needs and perhaps you could make a video on what fixed yours without going to an expensive mechanic.😏

Exodus 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Taking His name is not the same as saying His name there's no sin committed, but it would be better if the person calling His name did it with reverence. Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
