Greetings all, I tried to search on these but didnt find any specifics so here goes.
1st I found something interesting tonight when my daughter was buckling her seat belt, and said it was wet. It is cold wet and snowy here but she was correct in that the further we pulled the seat belt out the wetter it was. I'm suspecting maybe a rear door or window seal is shot and the rain/snow is getting into the pocket/where the rear seat belt coils?

2, I cant see/feel that anything at all happens when the rear heater is turned on. Really havent started diagnosing either too far yet but figured I'd check here before to see if anyone else had ran into either of these issues.
TIA
 
1) There is a problem were water leaks in the sun roof causing wtare in the compartment. I THINK its due to clogging of the drain rails that run down between the firewall and the cab. Which seat belt/ Feel any other wet places around it?

2) Have you checked the fuse?
 
91 fj80 passenger side back seat (2nd row) seat belt is wet. I remember reading here about the sunroof but everything else inside so far has been dry. I havent gotten a chance yet to check the fuse for the rear heater but that was my first thought as well
TIA
 
are you sure the door was completely shut? you might run some water over that area and see if you notice anything, or when its dark have someone shine a flashlight around the door area and look for any light coming through, other than the window
 
The problem is the black metal outside trim under the third row window. Remove and replace (CDan), remove and replace rubber washers only (they sit around the plastic posts holding the trim in place) or seal with urethane from inside (pull plastic trim from over the wheel well, peer inside with a mirror and around everything that comes through the sheet metal). Do both sides.
