Replaced Heater Blower Motor now airbag light flashes

I changed my heater blower motor last night which required me to take the glove box off and I had to undo some wires at the back to get it off. Well i put the new blower motor in and plugged the wires back together at the back of the glove box and put everything back together and the heater works great now but now the airbag light flashes??? I pulled everything back apart to see if i missed anything but everything is connected and looks fine. what did i do? how do i stop my airbag light from flashing?

From what I remember from changing the In Cabin Air Filter, you werent supposed to unplug the airbag sensor (yellow plug), just slide it off where it was mounted on the back of the glove box.

I'm sure someone else can chime in on how to fix it.

Once you disconnect any part of the SRS system while the car battery is connected and or the key is in the ACC position, a fault in the SRS system is identified requiring you to reset it.

anytime you unplug an air bag you need to have it reset.
