Question Air bag switch

When I first bought my truck (used) the pass. air bag light worked fine and about 2 weeks latter I noticed the light started flashing on the instrument panel and I then noticed I couldn’t turn the pass. bag off. I took it to a friend at the local ford dealer and he checked for any codes and he said the switch is bad but the only thing that is hurting was I couldn’t turn it off. No big deal, but about 6 months latter when I first start the truck up the air bag "OFF" or "ON" (can't remember which) light comes on and I don’t get the light on the instrument panel. It has done this several time since but not sure what the cause is? Could I have a loose wire?




99 SD Power Stroke, 4x4, Ext cab, bone stock.
