I just took apart each door and removed the plastic sheathing. I unbolted the door-mounted seat belt assembly and in doing so the amount of belt shortened because of the tensioner. Now it won't extend again. I haven't unbolted the passenger side and its still sliding out and in perfectly. I just can't get the drives side to slide out anymore. Any ideas what I should do I remedy this?

 

take it to honda they'll replace or fix it for free.

 

nope honda won't fix that, falls under abuse. If youlook there should be a clear plastic cap on one side of the tensioner. probably something in there is messed up

 

bull, i work at a honda dealership

 

well then you must work at a good one, when i brought mine in they took the door apart and said it looked like it had been tampered with

 

well did you?

 

its normal. just put it back in upright and it will work normally. theres a g level switch, probably a mercury switch that when its not upright or moving it locks in place.

 

Agree with you Superbeastcrx, Honda dealer did mine for free, no questions asked, Converted you better go to another dealership, that is a lifetime replacement part they have to replace it as long as you haven't screwed with it

 

I did scewr with it a little bit, car is totaled now anyway (fixed belts before accident thank god)
