Title: Seat belt and central locking questions
Post by: bighed on 02 January 2009, 22:49:33

Firstly guys my rear central seat belt is locked into position and wont pull away from the seat. What might be causing this?

Secondly, sometimes when I lock the car it wont dead lock on second push, have found that if I then open and shut all doors and boot it locks. Any ideas on that one? TIA  :y

seat belt you will need to tease it until it releases and your locking is a lazy soleniod  :y

Drivers door is deadlocking brain mate, easy job this is!

Microswitch on the astra's/Vectra's was a common cause to this!
