Air bag warning light has come on - What does it mean?

I own a 2013 Peugeot 3008 1.6 diesel, which suffers from an intermittent warning with the front passenger air bag. The car had this fault three weeks after purchase, but was fixed under warranty. Any idea what could be causing the problem?

Minor wiring fault under the seat. Either chafed or slipping out of a connector. If you can't find and fix it yourself, call in www.airbagman.co.uk
