This may not necessarily be a passenger situation, much more common to be the drivers side....

This error will have a code associated with it, you need that to know the next step. A common problem is with the connections under the drivers seat. this seat moves automatically, and the connections seem to generate a low resistance, and then trip a code failure....

Whatever the code tells you, disconnect and reconnect all connections, on that circuit.

Remember that the air bag testing happens on power on, so to retest, you have to power off and restart..

the computer knows that input data from a system has a problem,so disconnecting the battery will not help.
that is the procedure for working on it so that the airbags do not deploy.
a code scanner will tell you which part of the system,including a seatbelt latch,tensioner, or seat position sensor is defective.

My cadillac cts 2005 suddenly has the airbag light on the dashboard and the passenger airbag is always off even with a mature person is sitting next to me when the car is on , help

The problem could be in the control module, but more than likely it is in the sensor under the passenger seat has lost its programming not registering a passenger. You will have to take to dealer and get them to reprogram the weight sensor.

My 2004 CTS "service airbag" light comes on intermitantly, the driver side rear airbag (at the rear pillar) cover was loose when i got the car, i popped it back on but it does come loose occasionally,...

did you get this car new and if it is under warranty take it back
pushing the cover back on can pinch the bag and cause it not to work
this could cause the light to come on
have it checked and take great caution when putting cover on cause it can activate the airbag and cause damage to you
