The happy shopper obd scanners generally only work for engine control systems.To interrogate the airbag system would need something more expensive.however,air bag faults on these are often caused by poor connections under the seats to the belt tensioner systems.

Thanks for coming back elekie. You're probably right but I plugged it into my daughter's Volvo and it came up with an option to read the airbag codes so I was hoping it might just be able to help out on the Pug.

I've soldered the connections under the seats and replaced the steering wheel ring but still get intermittent air bag light. It usually resets when you switch off but not always. Probably need to clean the connections to the air bag control box next.

It could be the seat belt pre-tensioners - if they're faulty they'll also put on the warning light.

To save you some time and money in not throwing parts at the problem, it might be worth doing a Planet diagnostic, as that will tell you exactly which one is faulty. Dealers do them for around £80+VAT (although som might do it for £40 if they bill labour in half hour intervals).

But there's a network of Peugeot owners who have clones of the equipment which does the same job and they do it for fun / beer money. Here's a map of their locations:
