O/T Anyone know how XT6 Motorized belts work?
I can't get the drivers side XT seat belt to work. Its one of those motorized things. Anybody have a wiring diagram or exactly what is involve other than the track, sensors on the sides of the track and the motor? I don't have anything on it in my repair manuals. Is there a main computer or something in the door. I'd suspect its similar to the early SVXs system. Pass side works fine but I can't seem to trace the wires that well.

Post this question at:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/xt6 There are a few people with the Factory Service Manuals on there, that might scan the pages you need and send them to you. I don't have the manual myself, so can't be of much help.

XT6 Moto belt prob
Hey Colin,
If you don't mind I could use a fax of the electrical system for the belts. I got a new working motor and also got a new door latch assembly from today's score at the junkyard. Someone had just brought an XT6 in. Keys were still in it as was the battery. Thing fired up just fine. If I unplug it motor will take the belt back but other than that nothing. There's some funky wiring and cut wires under the dash that I can't figure out where the go. Don't look like they belong to the belts but could be wrong. Also, anything you have about the brain for the belts would be great too!. Work fax is 717-665-2928. Cover letter with my name on it or on the top would be fine. Thanks Ben

Does your manual say where the control unit is on the car. I know for the SVX its behind the rear shelf.

Ben, I only have the Electrical Section with me at the office. I'll check the Body Section this evening and let you know what I find out.

Big thanks to Colin!!
Thanks Colin,
The wiring diagrams didn't help but one thing listed in the trouble shooting did! I guess you have to disconnect the battery when you replace a part to reset the computer. Did it this pm and the drivers side belt flew forward when I opened the door. Its working like a charm now. On the pain in the butt side. I took it out to Lowe's for some more supplies and the rear right tire blew. It was well beyond its life but I couldn't get the thing off (have been trying for a week of and on to put the junkyard wheels on the thing). Had to drive 2 miles with a flat to Sears. Believe it or not they didn't charge a thing to take the wheel off and put my doughnut on. I might even think about taking my XT there for the next tires. Now, I must put all the trim and rear seats back in for my am inspection.

One method I have used for removing stubborn wheels (rusted on) is by loosening the nuts from the wheel a little bit and rocking the car side by side a bit before jacking up the car.

removing wheels
Did that but excellent tip. I even drove about 5 miles with 3 loose lug nuts on with no success. Just missed by a day going in for inspection and a nice sturdy lift to use for banging it off.
