[AIRBAG] I f*cked up, please shoot me.

When installing new speakers in my 4200 I opened one of the large connectors right hand side under the backseat in order to route some speaker cables a better way.
After I everything back together again and and took her for a spin the Airbag light is taunting me from. As I had the key in position one to give power to the amplifier when I opened the connector my guess is that one or many Airbag sensors (or belt tensioner) is included in that one and that the light will shine upon me forever until I find a mechanic.

One question though, the light is very dim, relative to the other lights. Is that an indicator itself, and if it is - what does it indicate?
The picture is with all lights lit up to show the difference.

Mine is the same. (Dim)

My local garage reset it for me... old battery was my issue.

Once you trigger the light, its needs diagnostics to put it out again (removing the seat plug will do it)

Interestingly, the GT and QP is self checking after a few ignition cycles so will go out on its own eventually if the fault is rectified.

When I fitted cruise control mine came on, even though i had battery disconnected at the time, had to go to Emblem to be turned off.
