Default Dammit Air Bag Light is on again!!!! 1.8T A4 Avant

Wife moved the Passenger Seat around and lo&Behold the damn light came on. I've downloaded the error code & it says the damn igniter on that side is crap...well guess what? The part is less than 3 months old! So what the hell is going on? Some have told me that the wiring is crap on this model on the passenger side. True? What can I do?
And can the Light be turned off without the VAG program?

it's probably the yellow connector under the seat, clean it and zip tie it in place.

You need a VAG.com to clear it.
