Those codes sound like the airbag was not replaced properly.

the passenger presence system is about seat detection not the airbag itself. Checking the restraint system wiring under the seat would be a good start. they had issues with the connectors to the seats on the encalves; which resulted in cutting out the connectors and hardwiring it....which meant it would be a pita if you had to remove the seat out of the vehicle.
