Does anyone know what the ford mondeo airbag flash fault codes are , my airbag light wont go out ?

i have a 2001 mk3 Ford Mondeo Ghia Y Reg , recently the airbag fault light has started lighting up but only when carrying a passenger in front , is off when just myself in car or when kids in back but as soon as someone sits on passenger seat the light comes on for few seconds then flashes once pause flash once and pause then flashes 5 times quickly (1-1-5), does anyone know what this fault code is pls and any sugestions on diy repairs or estimate costs for proffesional repair? i have found a yellow plug under the seat and am gonna try remove and clean tomorrow as have seen this suggestion on another posted question, anyone know what this part is ?
thanks for help in advance.

There is a sensor under the seat that tells the air bag how much to deploy with out injuring the passenger. You need to take to a shop trained in diagnosis and repair of these units or you could do someone harm.
