Default Air Bag Light

2000 3500 Express. Air bag light went on intermittently now on most of the time. I've replaced the clockspring. Worthless Chilton manual doesn't give any wiring diagrams.
It does not throw any codes! I'm told the air bag problems normally do.

they do but you need a scan tool that can read body codes. a cheap code reader won't cut it.

I have a really cheap scanner that reads engine codes, but I took it to an O'reily auto parts store (if you have them were you are?) and their scanner was much much better, even better than the best one they sell. But then again I know my buddy who is 700 miles away paid thousands for his with constant updates all the time. I think I'm going to disconnect the battery and go over as much of the wiring as I can follow, heck, I didn't even check the plug on the sensor in the front now that I think of it. If I can't find anything we do have a newer garage in town that might have a good scanner. If not, I wonder what the dealer would charge? Or if they would even do it without fixing it? I suppose I've been lucky, with 2 computerized vehicles and one much older(1955) and I haven't had one to a garage in over 20 years.
