Unplugged airbag need help!!

Need help, can't use "SEARCH" function.

Over the weekend, I was installing a set of component speakers.
I removed the glove box in order to try and find a place for the cross overs.
I unknowingly unplugged a big yellow pug that was attached to the glove box. I think this is for the side airbag.

Now I have the airbag light flashing in the gauge cluster when the car is on. I unplugged the battery overnight to reset the ECU, but that didn't do it.

Does anyone know what I can do? Is the light flashing because I unplugged that yellow connector? Is there something else I screwed up?

HELP!!

Dealer to reset the code. I would try Autozone first to clear it out, but I am not sure that is a clearable code by a handheld...dunno.

Yes.

Not unless you did something else you did not say.

The worst part of this is that I will have to do it as soon as possible.
I can't stand that blinking light.

As hard as I try, I can't ignore it
