Help! This thing is stuck in my Volvo seat belt clip. I've tried a long screwdriver to no avail. What do I do?

First try to spray it with WD-40 or something similar. If that doesn't work you may have to replace a worn out buckle. http://www.ehow.com/how_7932299_replace-seatbelt-buckle.html

I ordered two of these safety leads and have not had any problem with them. What year is your Volvo? In fact, I have so many people ask me where I got these. You may want to take it to a Volvo dealership (?). Don't give up, when you got them undone it will be well worth it. Good luck! Janet

Look in the end of another seat belt end and note from which side the buckle enters the rectangular hole in the lead. Go back to the buckle into which the lead is stuck. Put your screwdriver in on the side opposite the buckle's tab extends through the dog lead tab. Press down the buckle clip with the screwdriver and push on the buckle's release button while someone else gently tugs on the dog lead to pull it out of the buckle.

Hey Karen, unless you had forced it in in the first place it should just pop out. The other thing that may have happened is when you had your pet fastened it may have cracked one of the interior motors on the seat belt buckle. The option you have is to take it into a dealer ship and if its just one buckle should not be very expensive.

The tip from the factory is on extremely tight. Be patient, I found using a 6-pt wrench rather then the tool sent with it, to remove the tip worked. Good luck

You have to take it out and try again. Just keep trying until it snaps in completely.

I would pray that I find the key, or use a blow torch, or just call the factory! Surely the manufacturer should be able to give you some serious guidance. Bummer!

You have to do the following 1) make sure the belt clip is not attached 2) take a penny or nickel and pry open the cover from the slot at the bottom of the radio. Put pressure straight up and don't be afraid to apply enough pressure. The cover will pop open from the bottom. Hope this helps.

I had the same issue and had to go out and buy a cheap set of torx to get it out. Not easy to get the screws out without stripping them either.

I am having the same problem! I have adjusted the screw and still no luck. I am at the point of getting rid of it and buying a new one. Very disappointing, especially considering how expensive they are. Wish I could be more help

I used a tiny screwdriver to pry the tab out from the front side. You could use a thin knife blade or something similar. It pops right back in.

I don't have "tricks" up my sleeve, but if I was struggling with this problem, I think I would try a large wrench.... the kind that is used to remove an oil filter from an automobile. It has a rubber strap that wraps around tightly so you can twist it off. Hope this helps.

same here... you can get a locking type adapter from Lowes or Home Depot,... or tear off a small piece of plastic or tape and jam it into the damn thing... That's whaput a piece of plastic or tape over the but end of the bit and shove it in the driver...t

This happened to me. Its stuck to the part it needs to unscrew from. I tightened it down first then it unscrewed.

Just pull it with a small pliers. It should come out. It is just clipped not soldered

What u do is remove the clips that are by the handle..... Then un screw it with a Phillips screwdriver..... Then put the new one on the same way u took it off...... Easy..... It will take u 15 min

The one I have is so tight, I have to manually slide it down to allow the seat belt to fully retract. Maybe yours is defective.
