How does the weight sensor work for passenger seat

1.47K views

Seems kind of silly to be worried about this right now.

But i spilled dish soap on my passenger seat, not a small amount but not huge. The seat belt alarm goes off now unless I plug the seat belt in. Did I damage the weight sensor or something?

I don’t even know how to get the soap out? I guess I can go and press on it until it comes out?

The weight sensor is normally just a big button with some resistance in between, making it react when the the weight exceeds a certain level.

In this case it might have caused the to shortfuse. Try to let it dry out properly.
