  • 2004 Honda Odyssey EX got a SRS light on with no Seatbelt light. Put a paper clip between pin 4 and 9 on OBD2 terminal and watch the SRS light blinked 6 long flashes followed by 1 short flash indicated that is a 6.1 code "open circuited In Driver Seat Belt Buckle Switch".
    Solution:
    1. Open the driver side belt buckle and clean out the switch with Electrical/Contact cleaner bought from Autozone for $10.
    2. Reset the SRS light to clear the trouble code and the seatbelt light now come back on (off when put on seat belt).
    Tools use in this video: A paper clip, T 10 security bit with a drill, a can of Electrical/Contact cleaner, and a scribe.
    Hoping all my videos will give you knowledge, motivation, take the doubt and fear out of Do Yourself In (DYI) Project, and help you save money in repair cost.

    Press the lever of the switch down just enough and spray in the cleaner. Good job that you opened only the buckle's covering casing. There are people who actually remove the ENTIRE front driver seat!

      I wish they sell that switch it would make the job easier (it's almost look like a microwave door switch). I tried not to damage the seal, but if the seal is in good shape, it will not allow the cleaner to get inside the switch and clean out the contact. As I tried to lift the seal up, it came a parts and I damaged it. Anyway, the cleaner got in and clean out the contact and I did not see that light come back on yet. Since then, I never eat in the driver side again.

    I have this problem with my '05 Element. I hooked up my Innova 3100RS scan tool and it reported that the driver's seat belt buckle was faulty. I cleaned the buckle and cleared the code using the method presented in this video and it worked for a while. Now the SRS light is back on. I have a passenger side seat belt buckle I got from a scrap yard and will attempt to swap out the switch. The theory being that the passenger buckle sees 50% less use so therefore may be in better shape to begin with.

    Thank you very much for your complete guide. I was too lazy to try all systematically. So I did just spray WT40 inside the boot while I slightly open a tiny gap between the the switch button and the boot. It seems to work well. It might be my luck to have only one issue. Your explanation is clear and right to the point.

      Congratulations on the WD-40 spray!!! I'm glad to hear that it working out for you. 2 of my friends tried it on their vehicle with WD-40 and ended up using
      the electrical contact cleaner to get it to work. Anyway, the lesson for them is not to eat in the car because there are more than dust collected in the seat belt buckle.

You will start counting each time it flash. Pay attention to long flashes and follows by the short flashes. Don't worry if you missed the count because it will repeat these flashes. That is how you get the trouble code.

      1. Make sure you clean the switch good with electronic cleaner. The cleaner have to penetrate the contact point inside the switch. I ended up damage the rubber seal to get the cleaner inside the switch. Just clean the switch on the outside will not fix the problem. or see if you can buy the seat belt from the junk yard where you live.

      Sorry for the confusing. I'm not from New Zealand so I don't know how the cars set up over there. The Right or Left hand drive are described as the location of the steering wheel. The Left (Driver side) or Right (Passenger side) are described for the cars build in the US. I'm not rich enough to own every model cars world wide so I can only show you what car that I actually work on that made in the US.

      Some scanner supports ABS,SRS, DPS,TPMS... and some don't. If it doesn't show up on your scanner, then your scanner can not clear it since it does not support that particular system. In this case, it's the SRS system and in this video, I showed you how to fix it without the scanner.

      on another video a guy just sprays contact cleaner spray down into the buckle clip, and pushes the belt buckle into the clip multiple times, sprays again, again works it with the buckle a few times - and it seamed to work for him - so you may try that first before going to more complicated solution.
