DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
The seat belt system is used to lock and unlock the
seat belts. It consists of a seat belt control timer
module, door ajar switches, ignition switch, and sole-
noids located in the seats.
When the operator OPENS the door, the door ajar
switch completes a path to ground on circuit G75 for
the drivers door, and G74 for the passengers door.
The seatbelt control module then supplies voltage to
the solenoids located in the seats, unlocking the seat
belts.
Circuit R7 provides power from the module to the
drivers seat solenoid, and circuit R8 provides power
to the passengers seat solenoid from the control mod-
ule. Logic internal to the module determines the
amount of time the solenoids remain energized.
Ground for the solenoids is supplied on circuit Z1.
Power for the seatbelt control module is supplied
on circuits A45 and F13. The A45 circuit is a direct
battery feed and is protected by a 20 amp fuse
