It turns out my issue was a little different - the seat belt had become hung up on a plastic thing under the cover. But because of your video, I wasn't afraid to pry off that housing and figure out what the problem was. Thanks!
I saw a guy do this. The water and soap that the other guy used lubed the mechanism a little. I just pulled mine all the way out and shot some wd40 in there. Works a lot better now. It's just as good as this and the other guys fix but a lot easier.
Nice video. In addition to cleaning, I'm wondering if there isn't a way to get a little more tension in the retracting mechanism. Does it have a coil spring in it? Would it be possible to tighten that spring a little bit to get a more aggressive retraction?
Charles Senf i felt like that would of made this too complicated plus we do not use all of the seat belt so that means that the section in retractor should be clean.
I thought of that too but I think if you turn that around it will fix the part of the seat belt below it but then I think the part on the other side of it would have a Twist in it not sure though
What is the connection between retracted seatbelt and dirty seatbelt?... Why washing the seatbelt will make it fixed......can someone explain to me... Don't it cause of the mechanical problem?
It doesn't woke because of all the grim and dirt! pull it alll the way out , clamp with vise grips ,drop it into a bucket of warm soapy water for 30 mins. let dry and good as new!!

Test the motion BEFORE putting the cover back on, no?
thank you for your ideo, is a real great help

One thing about these videos, if you forget how it came apart, you can watch your own video to recall which washer went on first, etc.!
Good video! Thx

Thanks for watching unfortunately im not familiar of any way that you can add more tightening tension sorry
It would be a good idea to change the water a couple of times - just as your washing machine does. Maybe add some soap?
I just show it a picture of Rosie O'Donnell.
Why not remove the tether thing so you can put the entire belt in the solution (or almost all of it)?

Would have*
The belt in my 2K Dodge Dakota doesn't retract at all!
If I hear "right here".... One more time 😑
How can I release the middle seat belt in the back it's stuck
Zaima Lewis try using wd40 where it connects
lame fix, cleaing the webing does not repair a weak spring. The spring still needs to be replaced
If you just rotated the bit at the top it would have straightened it out!
Hi five ..I thought I was the only one who saw that
I thought of that too but I think if you turn that around it will fix the part of the seat belt below it but then I think the part on the other side of it would have a Twist in it not sure though
Dude with this type of material is hot water and laundry detergent in a bucket for a couple of hours.
is it
8 hours = 20 minutes 👽
Now change that nasty seat
What is the connection between retracted seatbelt and dirty seatbelt?...

Don't it cause of the mechanical problem?
The dirt on the seat belt will make the Belt not retract smoothly, this won't damage your seat belt just let it dry
@@ERICSDIYGARAGE thanks man...
I used canned air to blow the dirt out of the retractor mechanism, It works great now. My belt was clean. 06 DTS Cadillac
@@steverzepecki500 just air blow?..no water and any kind of soap?
@@m.shafiq1685 blow out the retractor mechanism, my belt was clean.
It doesn't woke because of all the grim and dirt! pull it alll the way out , clamp with vise grips ,drop it into a bucket of warm soapy water for 30 mins. let dry and good as new!!
I tried this. It didn't work.
Mike Theunissen your issue might your seatbelt mechanism
I'll check it out. Sorry I didn't want to sound harsh. Thanks for your reply!
Me too
Unsold cars sold dirt cheap
Wrong
it doesn't work if you have 2 doors
+Kevin Advincula thank you for your input
There's no panel to take.
The whole panel would have to come out. Lol
But it gives you an idea how.
It did to me.
There are much better videos on the proper way to clean and lubricate the seat belt system. Good effort poor results.
What do you mean? It worked his seatbelt worked when he got done
Im going to have to try this trick. Mine still retracts all the way but does act sluggish... I have a 2012 Subaru Forester.
