When I picked up my 93SC the other day from the shop that installed a standalone computer system with new harness and sensors for the fuel injection and ignition , the guy doing the work pointed out that the seat belts are now acting whacko. I read this post which contains a ton of great info on the subject, but I didn't see the symptoms I have.

Mine will usually retract the belts to the A pillar (open position) when the door is opened, but when getting in the car closing the door and starting it they will remain in the same position. I found that turning the ignition off and then back on will usually cause the belts to move to the B pillar closed position.
Once they moved to the B pillar closed position but the dash indicator lights and chime was on even though the belts were all attached and in the correct position. I turned off the motor and restarted it and the chimes and indicator went off. Sometimes the belts will fail to open to the A pillar position when I open the door with the motor running.
I'm looking for some tips on where to look for the problem. The areas this guy was working on were mostly in the kick panel area, but he did have the drivers console out installing a switch for changing computer programs, and he had the rear seat bottom out wiring into the fuel pump relay. I suppose it's also possible he could have blown a fuse somewhere, but I don't think thats the case because of how everything still works if the ignition is turned off then back on.
Thanks, David
