Front Driver's Side Seat Belt Tensioner

drewkelly · 08-03-2021, 08:15 PM

Searched far and wide and can't seem to find anyone who has had this problem. I can't get my seat belt into the tensioner (receptacle) and buckle it. Anybody know if those are repairable or am I lookin at buying a new tensioner (72117259387)?

Is there something jammed in there? Like a coin or something?

I took it apart and there's nothing in there. For some reason, the latch won't fully retract thus blocking the seat belt from inserting. I cleaned it to no avail. Unfortunately, it looks like I'm buying a new tensioner.
