How to replace the rear seat belt on 2005 Scion xA?

Question

Accepted Answer

The replacement process for a rear seat belt begins by first taking off the rear door scuff plate RH and rear door opening trim Weather Strip RH before moving to the tonneau cover assembly and deck board No.1 along with the deck floor box RH, spare wheel cover, rear seat assembly, deck floor box rear and deck trim side panel assembly RH and finally roof side garnish inner RH. Detach the rear seat 3 point type belt assembly outer by first removing the bolt and seat belt from the shoulder anchor side before removing the bolt from the retractor side. The process for removing the rear seat belt assembly outer center begins with taking off the seatback board together with the shoulder belt cover afterward uninstalling the bolt and belt from the floor anchor before moving on to taking out the bolt and nut from the retractor side to uninstall the belt. The rear seat inner w/center belt assembly RH and LH can be removed when their respective bolt and inner belt components are disconnected. Replace the child restraint seat anchor bracket sub-assembly RH by removing its 4 bolts prior to installing the new bracket with same bolts then torquing them to 42 Nm (430 kgf.cm, 31 ft.lbf). Secure the floor anchor and belt with the bolt on the rear seat inner w/center belt assembly LH while making sure the anchor part avoids the protrusion on the floor panel and torquing to 42 Nm (430 kgf.cm, 31 ft.lbf). In this installation sequence install the outer center belt from the retractor side and add the nut before tightening it to 42 Nm (430 kgf.cm, 31 ft.lbf). Subsequently attach the shoulder belt cover and seatback board center. Verify that the retractor locks after over 45 degrees of tilt and verify under 15 degrees of tilt that locking does not occur because improper functioning of the belt assembly indicates the need for replacement. The person installing the belt should first lock it into place using the bolt while applying torque of 42 Nm (430 kgf.cm, 31 ft.lbf). Following this, they must check the ELR restriction by quickly pulling on the belt. The locking feature should activate only when the belt extends beyond 955 mm (37.60 in.). If the restriction fails to function properly the belt assembly must be replaced. Check the fastening system of child seat belts to verify their ability to stop extending beyond their limit and then rewind. After full extension or rewind, the system should remain accessible for pulling out or rewinding; replace the belts if this functionality is not present. Finally, install the rear seat inner w/center belt assembly RH by securing the floor anchor and belt with the bolt, ensuring the anchor part does not run onto the protrusion part of the floor panel, torquing to 42 Nm (430 kgf.cm, 31 ft.lbf), and install the rear seat 3 point type belt assembly outer by securing the belt with the bolt on the retractor side, torquing to 42 Nm (430 kgf.cm, 31 ft.lbf), checking the degree of tilt for the ELR lock, and ensuring the belt locks by pulling it out quickly after installation; if not, replace the seat belt assembly. The last step includes testing the child restraint system fastening functions while you install the rear seat assembly.
