Description
Right front passenger seatbelt for Peugeot 206 206+. Color FXX – Black
Product Overview
Right front pyrotechnic seatbelt (seat belt with pretensioner) designed for Peugeot 206 and 206+ models. Built to restore original safety functionality after deployment or mechanical failure, this unit includes the retractor and pretensioner assembly mounted on the B‑pillar and the lower anchorage components. Finished in Black (FXX) to match standard interior trims on listed models.
Key Benefits
- Direct fit for Peugeot 206 / 206+ — commonly located and referenced by product codes for fast search and ordering.
- Restores occupant restraint and pretensioner functionality after deployment or malfunction.
- Durable webbing and robust retractor mechanism designed for long service life under normal conditions.
Compatibility
Suitable for Right Front (Passenger Side) of Peugeot 206 and Peugeot 206+. Verify fit by matching product codes listed below with vehicle spare parts documentation.
How It Works
The seatbelt assembly combines a retractable belt with a pyrotechnic pretensioner. In the event of a crash, the pretensioner rapidly removes slack from the webbing to better position the occupant before airbag deployment. The retractor ensures controlled locking and release during normal use and locking under sudden deceleration.
Replacement Procedure (Overview)
- Disconnect Battery: Always disconnect the vehicle battery and wait the manufacturer‑recommended time to ensure pyrotechnic and airbag circuits are discharged.
- Remove Interior Trim: Carefully remove the B‑pillar trim and any necessary panels to access the upper and lower belt anchor points.
- Unbolt Assembly: Unscrew the belt lower anchorage and the retractor mounting bolts. If present, disconnect the electrical connector for the pretensioner.
- Install New Unit: Fit the replacement assembly, route the webbing correctly, and tighten all fasteners to the Manufacturer’s torque specifications.
- Diagnostics: After installation, perform a system check with appropriate diagnostic equipment to clear fault codes and verify pretensioner circuit integrity.
Installation Recommendation
Installation of pyrotechnic seatbelts should be performed by a qualified technician. Take special care when handling the pretensioner: always disconnect the battery before work and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s procedures. Use correct torque values for anchor bolts and professional diagnostic tools to confirm system readiness. If unsure, refer to official service manuals for step‑by‑step guidance.
Most Common Failure Causes
- Deployment in a Collision: The pretensioner and often the retractor must be replaced after any deployment event.
- Electrical Faults: Corroded or damaged wiring/connectors can prevent pretensioner activation or generate airbag/seatbelt faults.
- Mechanical Wear: Webbing abrasion, fraying, or retractor jamming from debris can reduce effectiveness.
- Corrosion: Moisture ingress and rust at anchor points or internal components can impair operation.

Notes For Mechanics And DIYers
This part is intended for right front passenger position. When replacing a pyrotechnic seatbelt, always observe safety precautions for restraint systems. After installation, clear and verify airbag/seatbelt system status with an appropriate diagnostic tool. Do not reuse pretensioner‑activated assemblies; replace with a complete, serviceable unit.
