Default 94CA & 94D5 Driver Airbag Error - Replaced Clockspring, Battery, Insulator

E60 2004 530i with some weird airbag issue that started about two months ago. Since then I have replaced my battery with oem, had my car in for the battery insulator bulletin (61 13 9 290 787), and I have replaced the clockspring.

I have checked with INPA and it seems the airbag "Resistor Detonation Pill [ohm]" is at .82 and the lowest acceptable range is .84.

My question is what part do I replace next to fix this "Resistor Detonation to few" error and relive my car of this annoying airbag light?

I have attached my INPA error codes [94CA & 94D5] and the status screen for my column showing the low resistor.

Thank you!

You can check the resistance in INPA and/or DIS. If you want to fix the existing unit I am sure you can figure out a way to take it apart and replace the resistor.
