Try resetting the airbag light again, and make sure you did it properly. I think you only push it 7 times in 10 seconds....read the stickies and just double check .

No problem. Whatever you do, don't take it to the dealership b/c they will charge you to diagnose the problem, just to tell you that its a bad sensor. Those will run you a few hundred at least. I know the owners manual says that the airbags should be replaced/checked after 10 years. So it wouldn't suprise me if it comes back that you have a bad airbag sensor.

Also, you only have the driver and passenger airbag? If your car is a 95 then you don't have to worry about the side airbags like the 98-99's do.
