Questions about airbag systems are asked a lot in this site. Check out this website for many of your answers
http://www.airbagsolutions.com
In addition, the purpose of this website and company is to help people diagnose and repair airbag problems themselves without taking them to the dealer (if possible). It offers all the photos and data you need to understand your airbag system, read the codes and reset the light. It’s a pay site, but it certainly is worth the money ($14.95 for 1 day full access)
There’s a place to check if your car is listed on the home page
http://www.airbagsolutions.com/vehicles_list.aspx
and a working demo @ http://www.airbagsolutions.com/demo.aspx that shows just how easy these repairs can be.
This is quite an extensive website with pictures, descriptions and factory fault code charts as well as videos of both accidents and airbag deployments on these pages:

It also has a lot of information for you to check your own vehicle, like the recall search pages for both the USA and Canada:

Lots of insurance companies and body shops use this site for the information they need to repair your car.

I hope I helped you
