01 Taurus air bag code 46

Is this a common code. Just out of the blue it started flashing. Something about a pretensioner?

is senses a problem with your safety belt tensioner. some tensioners will retract (through and explosive charge) to keep your upper torso against the seatback during an impact. i would clear the code and see if it comes back.

Thanks, I cleared the codes and it came back. I lifted the seat and wiggled the wires and now the light is off. Must have happened when we moved seat back, must have pulled wires loose.
