First time you can try to disconnect the battery from car terminals, waiting for 30 minutes and connect again the cables in order to reset the ABS and Airbag Electronic Control Units (ECU).
If this procedure does not work you must use a diagnostic equipment connected to the Data Link Connector (DLC) of the car. The ABS and Airbag ECU fault memory can only be accessed and erased using diagnostic equipment connected to the DLC.
Please rate my response. Thanks!

DIAGNOSIS WITH SCAN TOOL
CHECK PROCEDURES
1.
Connect the Hi-Scan Pro to the vehicle data link connector located underneath the dash panel.
2.
Turn the ignition key to the "ON" position and turn on the Hi-Scan Pro .
3.
Check for diagnostic trouble codes.
4.
If a fault code is found, then replace the appropriate component. Never attempt to repair the component.
5.
If the Hi-Scan Pro finds that a component of the system is faulty, there is a possibility that the fault is not in the components but in the SRS wiring or connector.
The SRS airbag system has sophisticated electrical and electronic components. Therefore the airbag operating components should be handled very carefully.
SRSCM (Supplement Restraint System Control Module)
SRSCM determines when to deploy the airbag module by sensing the frontal and side impact force through the built in sensor SRSCM.

SOURCE: 2007 Passat wagon. I need to reset the air bag warning light.
the air bag light will only show if the ignition was turned on while it was disconnected.
it will defo need to be pluged into the computer to be put out but some smaller garages will have the software to do this and will be a little cheaper.here in ireland VW wanted 50euro to do mine but a small garage done it for 30euro.
you can buy code finders/reset gadgets on ebay but might not be worth it for one job compared to $130.
my suggestion would be to get the main dealer to do it if a normal automotive shop cannot access it.

In most cases this problem is caused by the rotating ribbon circuit contact under the steering wheel having a broken filament, the part is known as a clock spring contact, u will need to properly disarm the airbag and remove the steering wheel to access the part. WARNING: Failure to follow factory Airbag disarming protocol can result in an unexpected Airbag deployment and possible serious personnel injury or death.

Common fault on FORD
Usually due to a poor connection in the YELLOW PLASTIC CONNECTOR underneath the passenger seat.
Just push it together properly and it should clear the AirBag fault
