   Check the wires under the seats!
   
   These are for the seat belt tensioners and often get a bad connection which triggers the airbag light!

   More than likely it will be that, if giving them a wriggle don't help then best bet would be to solder them.

   If you don't fancy soldering them cut the connector off and use a couple of spade connectors. Did the job for me.
