E92 coupe seatbelt robot arm pausing sometimes...

jonmaceng · 01-26-2013, 01:53 AM

When my robot arm passes me the driver side seatbelt, it extends to about 80% of the normal full extension length, pauses (less than half a second, very briefly) and then continues its journey to full extension. The passenger side works fine.

Is this something I can fix on my own, maybe something is dirty, needs an adjustment, etc... Or is the only fix for this a brand new extender arm?

This is more of an annoying problem rather than a need to fix, but I have a feeling it might die sooner or later.

Mine has been doing this for a year... would also like to know if there is a fix.

The extender itself was replaced under warranty for not catching the belt, so it looks like it is in the motor assembly
