Airbag light blinks occasionally

Anyone have a problem w/ the Airbag warning light blinking occasionally in their S5 during driving?

On my commute in today, it blinked 2 or 3 times briefly, then went off again. This is the 2nd time in the last week that has happened.

Anyone else? Is this bad?

I'd hate to think the airbag was going to deploy when I'm on the highway at 70+.

My airbag light shows code #7. Now what code #7 is....I have no idea. I have never been able to find the airbag codes.

If anyone knows the codes, let me know.

Update

Hasn't done it the last couple of times I drove the car. My guess is it came on due to humidity or something like that.

(Intermittent glitches are the worst kind).

Air Bag 1991 Conv

Mine has not been driven in the last year.

I hope it is the electrical connection in the wheel hub that needs to wear off the crud...

I have driven the car three times this week. My light goes out after a while each time I drive it.

Just washed her up and went to the monthly Du Pont Regestry car show this morning in St Petersburg, FL. I need to use a tooth brush if I go again!

Parked next to a new Bently 6 lt convertable red leather, the owner even had a matching red leather cap, on the other side was an old Ferrari then a 1954 Chevy two door.

How neat is that.
