Did you check the fuse - they do corrode - turn it in it's holder.

Is there a noise as if it is trying to work ???????

 

[luis@labaton.co.uk]

no noise. where is the fuse?

 

[kth286]

In main fusebox in engine compartment.

It may have been disabled as the driver did not like it.

i replaced the fuse, still does not work

 

[kth286]

Did you differentiate between the two seatbelt fuses OK ?

If not the fuse there is a sensor in the seat base that should prevent the belt extending if no person in seat.

Perhaps that is faulty/disconnected.

Perhaps it is sticking - try and hit the seat base or try and jump up and down in the seat with door open and ignition on.
