w124 ce coupe
w124ce seatbelt extender.
The motor on the driver's side seatbelt extender on my w124 ce has a mind of it's own! It keeps running even with the ignition off. Removing the fuse stops it but the battery goes flat overnight! Any other way of disabling it? Help please!

It sounds like the receiver side of things in the belt receptacle beside the seat is faulty. Simple test - does it stop when you plug the belt in ?
If so it answers the question and your problem is the sender is not getting a signal telling it it is plugged in.
HOWEVER, the fact it operates when the ignition is off is weird ***.
That means the power is HOT to the belt sender all the time and that is so not right. AND on top of that the battery goes flat even with the fuse out ?
Find a good auto electrician my friend SOMETHING is very very wrong with your electrical system. Makes me wonder what else is live all the time hence your battery dies overnight.
