Installation recommendations
Generally/typically applies to replacing a seat belt with a pre-tensioner (pyro belt). The exact procedure may vary depending on the specific car design and equipment.
1) Before assembly (checks of the used part, what to compare with the old part)
- Compare the part codes (96413040XX, 8975J2) with the old belt.
- Check the condition of the belt: it must not be torn, cut, burnt or contaminated with oil/chemicals.
- Check the winding: the belt must unroll smoothly and wind smoothly without jamming.
- Check the connectors/electrical part of the pretensioner: no damage, bent pins and cracks.
- If the old pyrobelt was activated after an accident, also check related parts of the SRS system (typically wiring/connectors) – without guessing specific parts.
2) Necessary tools and materials (in general, without specific extra parts)
- Basic set of ratchets and extensions, suitable bits/keys according to the connecting material in the car
- Pryers/trim tools for removing interior plastics
- Flashlight
- Cleaning agents for connectors (as needed, gently)
3) Step-by-step assembly procedure
- Turn off the ignition, immobilize the vehicle and disconnect the battery (crucial when working on the SRS).
- Wait a few minutes for the passive safety system to safely disengage (common practice).
- Access the belt attachment by removing the necessary interior covers/trimming (procedure varies by design).
- Carefully disconnect the belt tensioner electrical connector; do not pull the wiring, release the connector body.
- Loosen and remove the attachment points of the old belt and remove the entire mechanism.
- Compare the old and new piece (attachment, belt guide, connectors, winder orientation).
- Install the used pyrobelt in the original places so that it is not twisted and runs the correct route through the guide.
- Tighten the fasteners as prescribed by the manufacturer (without specifying specific torques).
- Reconnect the pretensioner connector and check that it is properly secured.
- Put back the removed covers and trim so that nothing presses on the belt or wiring.
- Connect the battery.
- Check the function of winding and arresting the belt at rest (smooth operation, correct blocking in the event of a sudden jerk).
-
4) Post-assembly checks and test drive/function verification
- Check that the belt is comfortable to fasten and release and that it retracts fully.
- Check that there is no rubbing against plastic parts anywhere.
- After a short ride, recheck the attachment of the covers and the correct belt guide.
5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them
- Undisconnected battery when working on the pretensioner: always disconnect and follow the safety procedure.
- Twisted belt or bad routing: test unwinding/rewinding several times before final assembly.
- Connector/cabling damage: handle only by the connector, do not break the cables or pinch them under the trim.
- Activation of the pretensioner in the event of an accident or impact (the pyrobelt is usually replaced after activation).
- Wear of the winding mechanism and locking during long-term use.
- Mechanical damage to the belt (pinching, cutting through the edge of the interior, fraying).
- Pollution (oils, chemicals, drinks) leading to stiffening of the belt and worse winding.
- Unprofessional disassembly/assembly (damaged connectors, bad belt routing, pinched wiring).
