Seat Belt Buckle: Description and Operation







DESCRIPTION





The left and right front seat belt buckle restraint system switches are located in the respective buckles. The seat belt buckles are bolted to the base frame of the seat. The seat belt buckles are a typical buckle design with a release button on the top to free the seat belt.

The left and right front seat belt buckle restraint system monitors the status of the driver's and passenger's seat belt switch. The airbag unit can be ignited if the seat belt is not fastened during the initial triggering threshold.
