[W126 Coupe] seat belt retractors

[Dick Spellman]

Well congratulations Mike you have the wrong switch in the door....  The 
circuit is either normally open (N.O.) or normally closed (N.C.).  Pull 
the pin switch (depress the clips top and bottom) and disconnect the pin 
switch from the two leads.   Turn the ignition on.   Now touch and hold 
the leads together, what does the seat belt presenter do???  Now 
separate the pair, what does the seat belt presenter do?  You are now 
replicating the function of the pin switch.  I'd simply go the local MB 
stealership and tell them you need a door pin switch that performs the 
inverse function of the one you have installed now.  Better yet, I'll 
test mine in the AM and tell you which one you need to order, either N.O 
or N.C.  A $3 problem I might add.

Regards,

Dick
