You really need it vagcom'd as that will tell you where the fault lies and it will enable you to clear the warning light

That said the airbag connectors under the front seats are a known weak point and sometimes get kicked and pull appart. You will need vagcom or similar to clear the fault though.

very rarely is - its the wiring under the seat that gets bashed about; i've got the same problem but i just clear the light and it goes for a month or two until the seat is moved
