Default Automatic Seatbelt Problems

Hi everyone,

I have a 91 Thunderbird with the automatic seatbelts. Recently the seatbelt has stopped working. It is stuck in the foreward position on the track, so that it currently is not functional. I removed some of the interior pannels on the car to see if I could access the mechanism, but couldn't find the problem. Has anyone had any experience with these. I really don't care if I can get it working or not. I would be happy if I could just slide the mechanism from its current foreward position to the rear position (where it would normally be when driving). Then I could just manually connect the belt whe driving. I am probably getting a new car in about 4-6 months, and don't want to spend the money to replace the whole unit.

You probably have a limit switch out on the belt. It tells the module if it is in the forward or rear stop of the trac.
