air bag light

hey guys,
washed the truck 3 days ago and air bag light came on. flashes at first then comes on and stays on.
plugged in my evolution and checked codes: nothing
unplugged both batteries and let truck sit: no change
turned passenger airbag on and off and left on: no change

hate to take it to the dealer and spend the money if i don't have to.

any ideas on what i can check to make it go out?? all i did was wash the truck, like i have a hundred times before. i'm guessing a sensor got wet, but can i do anything??
thanks a lot in advance, i appreciate any help.

When you turn it on count the flashed. It will flash maybe twice and then pause and then flash 3 times. That is the code 23 look up the code and it will tell you what it wrong. Just google it or look here and you will find something.
