I was fixing the door trim (something was not fastened properly inside) and tested the locking mechanism with the key in the ignition, when done and everything was back in place, I started the car. And there it is- an airbag warning. I must have forgotten to plug the side airbag module when I tested the locking system.
Does anyone know if this can be reset without going to the dealer? If not possible, how much will the dealer charge?

Found a good indy shop that specializes in airbag repair. They were able to fix the warning message with a Snap-On machine with a special key. First attempt with a mobile airbag service was a no-go :thumbsdown:, didn't have the right tools.
