I had a similar problem that occurred during cold weather. I originally suspected the motor was getting old and was not able to contend with the *very* cold weather at the time. The belt started working again when the temps warmed up but the problem came back down the road. I popped off the cover where the manual thumbwheel is hidden (behind driver on same side) and sprayed that area with Fluid Film Lubricant. Also along the track and have not had problems since. Even throughout another *very* cold winter! I had this problem regardless of weather. It turned out to be the fuel shut off reset switch, which is located under the hood release handle on the driver's side. (red button) If I pushed this button when the door was open, the seatbelts would move forward. Eventually, I removed and then replaced this switch. They work with the switch removed.
To remove the switch, you carefully remove the trim cover by prying out two snap fittings. One is lower left and the other just below the hood release handle. The switch is held in place with two screws. Inertia Switch Repair: After removing the switch using the above instructions I held the unit upside down and sprayed a little electrical contact cleaner towards the electrical contacts. The liquid penetrated the inside of the unit and I popped the red switch open then closed a few times (using a screwdriver). Using a paper towel I wiped the excess fluid from the unit. The seat belts started to work flawlessly after the switch was installed back to original location.
Note: These instructions also apply to the Nissan Quest from the same year.
