Passenger side airbag error after M6 swap???

I swapped out my A4 for a M6 and used a M6 harness. Now I have the airbag light on my dash. I scanned it and it says passenger side airbag. Is their another line I need to run for the harness??? I checked all of the connections for the airbag and they are good. Any input would be great...

is it the same year harness as the engine and tranny? if not that could be your problem. ive also heard when doing an A4-M6 swap that it is suggested to change out your dash harness as well for small things like this.

I just did the same swap in my 99 using an 01 harness and no issues like that at all. Mine functions just like it came original like that except the cruise, which will be fixed once the clutch switches/wiring are ran.

Did you hook up the 2 wires up under the passenger side dash (behind the kick panel) that go from the PCM through the firewall? They might be connested somehow, I'm not sure what those wires went to, but they are in the general area.
