Get it on a Lexia!

The next option is the steering wheel airbag connector which can be a bit of an adventure, especially if it is broken rather than dirty.
Has the steering wheel been off at all?

Have you lifted the passenger carpet where front of the floor slopes upwards, lift out the polystyrene block and you will see the airbag connectors unplug them and spray them with wd40 and snap them back together a few times 95% of the time this will be your problem.
