Default Airbag service message

2008 suburban LT

I replaced the front drivers sensor back in 2015, worked fine. I replaced the passenger side today and I am still getting the service message. I used a Rock Auto sensor both times.
Would the message be coming from anything else?

The Advance Auto guy checked it for me. it came up with no codes. I disconnected the battery for about 30 minutes, re-attached and the message is still there. I'm trying another Advance Auto today.

It appears the Advance Auto stores don't have the right scanner for airbags.

What else could the Service Aribag message be for.

the only answer is; a fault in the airbag system. and yes code readers won't access srs codes. you need a full function scan tool. without the dtc there is no way to know where the fault lies.
