You didn't mention a year or model, go generally speaking an airbag light doesn't necessarily mean that the airbag is faulty. On some cars the airbag light also checks the seatbelts, the SRS control unit, associated wiring as well as the crash sensors. Also, on some luxury cars the light also detects steering wheel position sensor.
Take it to your local mechanic. Check the computer code. It can be a faulty seatbelt sensor switch located on the seatbelt clip or it just needs to get cleared. Takes five minutes. If you take it to an acura dealer, they will charge you upwards of 100.00 to check.
I had the same issue. Same year, same model. I checked the manual and a flashing srs light has to do with the sensors for the side air bags and seatbelts. I jiggled the wires under the drivers seat and reseated the plug. Problem solved. Check under the passengers side too.
SRS stands for supplemental restraint system. You have a problem with the airbag system. The seat belts have sensors to let air bag module know if they are buckled. Could be a bad buckle seat belt will work fine .This may be a common problem is why they said seatbelt problem
