Airbag Light - 98F3 Short Circuit 2K5 E85 Safty Battery Terminal

Having fixed all my other problems, this has now appeared along with the airbag light:

Stored in the Satellite Safety module.

Car has sat a lot lately since I had the steering out to fix the power steering ECU.

Tried a new battery and clearing codes but issue remains. Don't know if it's the BST (I will take a photo tomorrow of the inside, I could use a second one to compare) or the module.

Check out the pyro connection on the + battery connection these can work loose and set a code. It's the system that blows apart the + connection on the event of an accident and cuts the power off from the battery.
