Forscan code

So I am trying to learn how to use the forscan program. I find that it detected an open circut for th deleted intake heater, whitch I expected. It also found;
===ECS DTC B1230===
Code: B1230 - Driver Safety belt Retractor Low or High Resistance on Squib

Module: Electronic Crash Sensor

Diagnostic Trouble Code details

Driver Safety belt Retractor Low or High Resistance on Squib


So that answers the the question about the intermittent airbag/ seat-belt lamp. Has any else had this problem and how did you solve it?
BTW- This is a E350 SD Van

That could just be a bad connection to the seat belt retractor. You can disconnect it and clean it electrical contact cleaner to see if that helps.
