    Same thing happened to me this week. Went to the garage to leave for work, and the seat belt didn't click into the latch. Thanks. I'm trying to source a driver's-side latch now.

    Cooling Fan Relay?

    Haha, now years later my cooling fan relay is getting stuck closed. After I turn the car off, the fan is still running like it was a BMW or something...lol. I tap the fuse box, above where the relay is, and the fan turns off.

    Thanks for the feedback folks! I'll edit some more pics and post them up as time allows. I tried a few different things to get comfortable with learning to compose. Hawaiian, when you say that maybe a better crop would isolate the subject better in the 2nd picture, do you mean vertical or...
