I suppose you could run jumper wires directly to the portion of the seat you wish to energize, but with such a nice car, why not fix it correctly?

    David if you knew anything about a PMC/Rolls you would know you don't waltz into a shop and have the car back in a week or two. My last electric repair required several months between getting parts and finding a mechanic who knew what they were doing!~~

    Ray I am in the same situation, I'd love to use my car through the end of the season and then send it in for repair for the winter months. I am always amused when answers like the one above come across any forum in relation to a PMC/Rolls Royce. Mine is a Spur IV 1997 and was laid up for more than 9 months for a new ECU for the engine. Cost was about $26,000.00!

    You may, if not already a member, consider joining the Rolls Royce Owners Club (RROC) and access their forum as many members who have previously experienced this may have a workaround. Depending on what state you are in and model you may be able to find someone who can repair over the down time for winter.... in the meantime, I am going to enjoy mine until she goes into for service after the season ends.

What does code B2909 mean on a 2007 mercury grand marquis
B2909 Belt Tension Sensor Fault RCM REFER to Section 501-20B .
Normal Operation The belt tension sensor operates in conjunction with the occupant classification sensor (OCS) system. The electronic control module (ECU) for the OCS system interprets a variable voltage signal provided by the safety belt tension sensor to identify the possible presence of a child safety seat in the front passenger seat.
The OCS system components (seat cushion foam pad, bladder with pressure sensor and electronic control unit) are calibrated to each other and are serviced as an assembly. The OCS system components are not to be installed separately with the exception of the belt tension sensor. If a new OCS system, OCS system component or seat cushion foam pad are needed, a new OCS system service kit (seat cushion foam pad, bladder with pressure sensor and electronic control unit) must be installed as an assembly. Refer to Air Bag and Safety Belt Pretensioner Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) in this section.
The ECU monitors the belt tension sensor circuits for faults. If a fault is detected on any of the belt tension sensor circuits, it will report the failure to the restraints control module (RCM). The RCM will store DTC B2909 in memory and, depending on the fault, flash a LFC on the air bag indicator. The secondary air bag warning chime will also be activated.
Possible Causes A belt tension sensor circuit fault can be caused by:
  • wiring, terminals or connectors.
  • an open circuit.
  • a circuit short to voltage.
  • a circuit short to ground.
  • a faulted belt tension sensor.
  • a faulted OCS ECU.

No spark , have changed the power tr unit , one plug sparks once
Given tha age of the car could very well be a bad ECU, Engine Control Unit. Early 90's mitsubishi's had poor capacitors in the ECU and tend to leak with time causing the ECU to fail. The ECU is located between the driver passenger seats behind radio. Remove two interior pieces from tunnel between seats and look for ECU (it has three large yellow plugs going to it) There should be (3) 10MM bolts holding it in place, remove and carefully open unit, pay special attention to area under capacitors. If you see a grease like product (often times it has green tone to it) unde any of the capacitors you most likely have found the problem. Reorder a rebuilt unit, when reordering be certain to refer to the MD number on the ECU cover for proper replacement.

I hope this may have assisted you,
Tom
