I think the light should only go on if the passenger is leaning up against the door.
The light signals that the bag is temporarily disabled.

yeah its normal the when the sensore feels a weird object like a briefcase or somethin the ligh will turn on just like if someone is leaning to much to one side the light will come on so the air bag wont deploy if u crash at the moment the light is on........cuz if u are leaning to much to one side the airbag may do more harm than good

The heating element would interfere with the sensors.
