Ford Focus 1.8 1999 - Airbag light - stuartmc

The airbag llight in my Focus has been on steady for a while. The light comes on with the ignition, off briefly, then on solid. Can anyone advise what that indicates. I had a quick look around today and the feed and ground are fine to the control module. Also checked continuity of the clockspring and connections to all the system components and can't see any obvious problems. Is there a code reader that will read airbag faults?

80% of airbag faults are the cable to the pretensioner under the seats. Big-footed rear passengers kick the connections, giving the error.
