Try looking for a disconnected wire under either of the front seats. They may have knocked it loose when cleaning the interior. If you find something unplugged, plug it in, disconnect the battery cables for 5 minutes, then reconnect the battery cables. If you can't find the problem, the best way to disable the system is to remove the fuse for the air bag system.

i reset the light with the manual air bag light tips posted ..turning key to on and then hitting the drivers door switch 5 times ...it turned the light off. and been off for a day or two ..im hoping it will stil deploy and im pretty convinced it was a wire so i will take a look ..my seat was moved all the way up on the passenger side when they did a interior clean.
