Lets cheat a little, disconnect the positve side of the battery. Let the car sit for about a hour. Re connect the battery. The air bag light should reset itself unless there is something else wrong I doubt
you have to remember that the computer will not completly reset until the vehicle had been driven about 50 miles. The reason that the computer does not reset itself right away is so it can do a diagnostic check on the vehicle. If the light comes back on then it would have to be scanned. Let me know

Well, I guess there is something wrong, maybe the switch or bulb is bad on the passenger side? I did notice that the off light is not coming on now. That was the only thing I disconnected. I will get it scanned. Thanks for the reply.

I replaced the heater core in my 2001 Dodge Ram 4X4 5.2L V8. I removed/reassembled the entire instrument panel and all connectors. Now, there is no activity when I turn on the heater/ac selector; I have no dome or instrument light, and the air bag light is still on. Where did I go wrong, and what do I do to fix?

Have you checked the fuses? There's an interior lamp fuse inside and that could be one of the two fuses for the air bag computer. There's a second fuse box under the hood.

Have the TIPM tested. Also, you may want to check for bad or broken body ground straps.

Let me know what you find.
