B-Pillar Limit Switch Test

Turn ignition OFF. Disconnect B-Pillar limit switch connector. Measure resistance between terminal 7 and 6 at B-Pillar door latch switch. See Fig 1 . With carrier at center body pillar position, there should be less than 5 ohms. When carrier is not at front body pillar position, there should be greater than 10,000 ohms. If resistances are correct, return to SYMPTOM TESTS. If resistances are not correct, replace front seat shoulder strap track.
