I am swapping out my black seat belts for red ones. just got the new red ones and the drivers side is fine and in. The passenger side new belt will not extend unless I press on a specific spot on the white plastic cover. the black one I removed does not do this, it extends as normal.

I have the shop manual and so far it isn't of any help with this. So my question is, what does this black wire do on this belt assembly? It is not on the drivers side. Does it somehow lock out a new belt until power is supplied? I still cant find any answers in the manual.

found what it is buried in the service manual, it is a belt tension sensor.

anyway, the belt all on its own started working normally. installed it and so far so good.................................... .........
