Had the same problem and fixed it by....

look under most moved seat...in mine it was the drivers side.... look at all the wiring you will have to cut the cableties... i found two! cut wires...cut by the seat itself moving...solder wires back together... cover in tape and replace under seat with more cableties...

Fixed...good luck its not that tricky

May have been knocked when you weren't around and just needs putting on a computer to switch off.

I had the same problem....
The remedy is as described by 'Richard' I just lubricated the under seat connections using copper grease....

IT WILL EITHER BE THE DRIVERS AIRBAG IT'S SELF OR THE RIBBON (squib) behind the steering wheel

Had same problem with airbag light on my 2001 reg 406 1.9 hdi staying on all of the time with ignition on.Diagnostics indicated drivers Squib fault also. Tried all recomended rectification methods, to no avail. Eventually I was informed (by a guy at a car breakers yard) that if your indicator stalk was "sloppy", and instead of knocking OFF after a right turn, to the NEUTRAL position, it flicked itself into the LEFT turn position !!. The fault was in the combination unit intigrating the stalks for indicators,lights, washers, radio control etc, situated behind the steering wheel. Disconnect negative terminal from battery, wait 30 mins,remove airbag unit from steering wheel,disconnect wires,and remove steering wheel(mark wheel position to replace in same position when re-fitting.Dicconnect all cables to combination unit, remove and replace with either a new unit(expensive) or get one from a car breakers(as I did for £20), and BINGO !!!! PROBLEM SOLVED. Peugoet quoted me £1100.

That code relates to the wiring under the drivers seat coming fromthe seat belt tensioner should be a plug under the drivers seat with 2 wires going into it.
Disconnect the battery for at least 15 mins possitive and negative side disconnected,cut the plug out and solder the wires together.
This always works,does,nt affect the way the airbag works at all,make sure the wires are solder,d to the right ones.connect the battery and your light should be out and fixed.
