anfield2601 I had the same problem with mine........its caused by a bad earth on the electrics.......I took it to a dealer and all he did was pull up a panel just beside the drivers door...just under the carpet.... a cable is feed to a bolt.....he just tightened it up....happy days airbag light gone.
