Hi
You will need to take the car to someone with a diagnostic machine ,when you've removed the seat I'm assuming you've unplugged some cables ? If not you could have disturbed the wiring under the seat that controls the airbag which requires a diagnostic machine to reset the light
Hope this helps Nick

More likely to be a sensor - check gsf (google it - german, sweedish, french car parts) for the seat belt sensor

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.

SOURCE: My 2004 Honda Civic has an air bag light on the

Hello.
There are quite few components involved in the system that will turn on the air bag light.
Air bags, wiring, seatbelts and sensors are all part of it.
I suspect that when you moved your seat it may have broken a wire near the seat causing the light to come on.
If you want to check for anything obviously broken around the seat area you may be able to save yourself some diagnostic time when you take it in.
Working with air bag systems can be dangerous so I would suggest you take it to an experience mechanic.
Make sure whoever you take it to has the proper tools to do the repair.
Thank you for using FixYa.

04dodge ram air bag light goes off after starting then comes back
remove the battery cables and hold the positive and negative cables (WHILE NOT CONNECTED TO BATTERY!!!) together for about 2 minutes. This procedure will reset your vehicles KAM (keep alive memory) and will get rid of check engine/air bag lights as long as everything is connected properly

Recently the electric window winder on my BMWZ4 drivers dide was replaced.Since this has happened my airbag light stays on.Could this have been anything done during the winder replacement.
Hi , does your car have a side door air bag ? , if so this would have to be removed to replace the window mechanism and the ignition has probably been turned on with the air bag disconected so the air bag control unit has reconised a open curcuit fault, the warning light will stay on until the fault memory has been cleared , hope this helps , regards mark

Remove d/s airbag
disconnect the battery, then find the air bag plug normally under the seat or around side of the seat, maybe under the carpet *bright orange cable*

once you have disconnected the battery and the cable start taking the steering wheel apart and remove it, after market steering wheel will be needed unless your just going to cut the air back out and re fit the wheel, do not connect the air bag cable, you will have a dash light on the dash for air bag doing this though.

Honda Accord brake light removal
It's a lot of work for just cleaning.
Fold the rear seat down and remove the two 12mm bolts on the bottom corners of the seat back, pull the seat out.
Between the seat bottom and the carpet you will find two tabs you need to pull and then pull the seat bottom up and out of the car.
Remove the two 10mm bolts securing the seat bolsters to the area the seat bottom was covering. Pull the seat bolsters up and out of the car.
Pop the "C" pillar trim off of the car (above the parcel shelf and beside the rear glass) (side airbag vehicles have a slightly different procedure.)
Pull up on the parcel shelf carefully and evenly. Remove clean and put everything back together.
