Supplemental Restrain System light (SRB)

Hello there!
I have a 2004 TSX with 38,000 miles and was wondering if anybody has or has had a problem with the Supplemental restrain system light indicator.
It started this weekend, the light came on and off but seems that today light is on permanently.
I drive my car alone most of the time but I’m concern about the problem. Does anybody know if this is an expensive problem to fix or is it just a reset kind of thing?
I would appreciate any info anybody can give me. Thanks in advance and Happy Holidays to everybody.

Airbags are dangerous. Don't go messing with anything. The first step is to take it to the dealer and have them figure out what the problem is and you can go from there.

Thanks Lukeatron,
I know that I have to take the car to the dealer. My concern at this time is to know ahead of time how expensive it will be or if it's somethinhg that they will fix under warranty since my car has only 38,000 miles

There's really no way to guess what it might be. There's a lot of parts in the SRS system. Until the dealer looks into you've got no idea which part is the problem.

Do you put anything on the passenger seat?

your warranty coverage. 38,000 is under, but there's a time limit as well. I'd git goin' directly to the dealer, do not pass GO, do not collect $200.

Many times it is the switch in the seat belt that is worn out. If you plug a code reader, it will tell you.

Thanks for the advises. I'm planning to go to the dealer next week.
In the mean time, I just noticed that if somebody is seating on the passenger seat them everything works fine (light goes away). It seems that the problem is when there is nobody seating (I drive alone 90% of the time). I noticed that things work fine when there is something on the passenger seat. 2 Days ago the light was on and then I put 2 small boxes of business cards on the seat & light went away. What do you all think this may be?

This is the SRS warning light you're talking about and not the "Passenger Airbag Off" light, correct?

Back from Vacation. Happy New Year to everybody.
I just wanted to let you know that I did take my car to the dealer and the problem was with the driver seat buckle. They took 2 hours to fix it and was under warranty so I did not have to pay anything.
