I think this means the air bag is not ready. Maybe there is a little bit of corrosion on a connector or something of that nature. The connectors to the sensors and such have gold plated contacts. It is the most corrosion resistant electrical conductor. Therefore clean these things with MAF sensor cleaner and soft cloth. Don't scratch off the gold plating.
When you work on that you must have the battery disconnected!!!! I don't want you getting hurt by the airbag going off accidentally!
