Hi, Do the lights go out after a few seconds or so? The checking system is doing its job. You may need to check the relays time after time for bad connections and corrosion on terminals. Good luck.

More than likely one of your crash sensors has corrosion or has moisture intrusion. Have light reset at any good shop or the dealer - note if light comes back on then you'll need to have your system looked at.
Just recently, I inadvertently removed the yellow doohickey that holds the 2 x 10 amp fuses in the interior fuse bank of my 2002 WJ Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. I checked the fuses and they were ok so I inserted the fuse holder back in.. Low and behold the seatbelt and airbag light came on and stayed on. After several quick fixes etc to get the lights to go out, I finally returned to the fuse holder and discovered that A. You need to squeeze in the tabs to get the fuse holder out and B. the fuse holder when being re-inserted will not automatically clip in... you have to squeeze the tabs again to press the fuse holder fully home. I started the old girl up again and no more lights.
I have a 2002 jeep grand cherokee Limited and Had similar problem. Found out that a wire/connection harness had gotten cut under PASSENGER seat.from seats moving back and forth. It's part of the airbag system, it tells airbag system if seatbelt is fastened and if occupant is in seat. Since the wire is broken, it can't report back to air back system and activates the light. try this, hope it helps.
The issue would not be related to a fuse. There is a fault in the
airbag system somewhere, and your airbags are not operational at this
time. The issue may be related to the seatbelts, but if you don't
understand the airbag system it is best left to a professional. Airbags
save lives, but can also be deadly if you don't know what you're doing.
have the jeep scanned by a dealership NOW!!
unless you dont mind driving with the airbags disabled!!,
--you basically have an error with the air bag system!!, and can only be diagnosed by the dealer's scanning software,(welcome to new age cars!)
Are you using the seatbelts?
The airbag light is on because there is a problem with the system.
PLEASE do not try to fix the airbag problem yourself.
You could accidently activate the bag and get hurt.
Basicly you have to take apart the steering column cover and the switch is held in place with screws.
If you have to take the steering wheel off, it is best done by a
qualified tech. There is an airbag in the steering wheel that has to be
disconnected. THIS AIRBAG CAN GO OFF, PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS
YOURSELF!!!!!!!
