Seatbelt not working
« on: 27 September 2022, 20:31 »
Hi all

I’ll keep it brief

In the last month
Key fob only unlocks drivers door
Drivers seatbelt inertia reel stuck

Are the two related, i.e protected by the same fuse/relay
I don’t have any airbag warning lights

Any help most welcome

Thanks fellas

Don't know for sure but I don't think they will be related.
Does pressing the key fob button twice quickly unlock all doors? As that's an option iirc you can set on the computer display.
Seatbelt sounds like it is jammed or faulty. Doesn't sound like it's  locked as the pretensions has gone off as I would think the airbag light would be on.

Will the seatbelt not pull out, or not retract?
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.
