How to fix the malfunction of the passenger airbag on a Mercedes E-Class

Model: Mercedes Classe E W212 - Years 2009-2016
Part: Airbag

We see that on this Mercedes E-Class, at startup, the passenger airbag malfunction light comes on. To resolve the situation, the youtuber uses a scanner to read the error codes that the airbag may have generated. If we go to diagnostics/Mercedes and then select the model of our car, then go to the chassis number and look for the SRS (or airbag) voice, we will read the codes that the various sensors have generated: for example, the passenger seat was disconnected with the ignition on; so it was necessary to reconnect the connector. However, this was not enough to turn off the light. We then try to delete all the old previous error codes and indeed at this point the light goes off.
