The airbag is now out. The problem was with the passenger pretensioner. I had replaced the front seats with the earlier ones with the piping. MGR had at sometime changed the connectors from the pretensioner to the wiring harness. My connectors, as a result of changing the seats, did not fit. I replaced the connector on the pretensioner and the warning light now extinguishes after the self test when the ignition is turned on.
Thanks to everyone for their input on this problem.
