SRS DTC Code 4-1

Need some help- Airbag light is on- tried to reset it, but came back on. I jumped the connectors and the DTC code came back as 4-1, which I know on Honda's points to passenger Seat Belt Tensioner- Car has not been in an accident. When I look up codes for 05, 4-1 isn't on there. Is it a valid code for the 05? I changed the seat belt tensioner, but I still have the light on. I tested both tensioners for resistance and they both came up with 2.2 ohms, which is what it should be. Any ideas? Need a sticker....appreciate any help.

According to the service manual the DTC code is 4 digits for the SRS system, I'll upload the pictures. Also I checked the wiring diagram for the whole SRS system and the only connection it has to the tensioner/seatbelt is this:

Thanks for uploading the diagrams- I have been looking for that. When I jumped the 4 & 9 connection on the OBDII plug, the airbag light blinked 4 long, and then 1 short. That is the only code it is throwing. It repeats itself after that.

JJH- thanks for the link, but I have reset the system a few times. It goes off, but the next time the car starts and runs through the system check, it pops back on.

I guess I will need to check the wiring. It is really frustrating. I unplugged the passenger seat buckle, and it didn't throw another code- only thing that happened was the Passenger Airbag Off Light stayed on. Once I plugged it back in, the Passenger light went off.

In to figure it out. I've got two different TLs right now both throwing 8-1 codes after doing my interior swap which involved swapping the seats. I also swapped the OPDS modules though so my car should have never really detected anything at all different because the battery was unhooked the whole time.

so just stopped by auto body place. they read my code for free. I don't get it- when i read the code with the jumper it came back 4 long blinks, 1 short blink. when they read it with a reader, it came back saying my front impact sensor and passenger seat buckle are causing the issues. Car has not been in a crash so don't know how both went.
Seat buckle has a lifetime warranty?
