Odd question; seat belt doesn't want to extend

Our 14' coach on both the driver and passenger seats, have seatbelts that take forever to extend when putting on. They will move an inch or two then lock, move a bit more, then lock. There has to be an easy fix for this but with my lack of google'ing skills, all I get are seat belt extender adds. Anyone know a fix for this.

Pull really slow out. You might try taking the cover off and look at locking mechanism.

Thats what we have learned to do. I need to dig into it further. The seatbelts are integrated into the seats so I will have to find out where the mechanism is. I have an issue with the wiring of the seats when we turn them around the wires cause a short so I guess I will make the job two fold. Thanks for the reply.

Made a panic stop lately? If so, the seat belts might need to be reset:

How to Fix a Sticky Seatbelt

Being too far from level can cause the same issue.

Otherwise, the "slow pull" method already mentioned is the answer.
