Default Airbag Fault - Yet another thread ...

Hey all, in scouring the forums for airbag error message I am getting leaves me with a couple questions :

First, here is the error being thrown:
Code:
Address 15: Airbags        Labels: 4B0-959-655-AI84.lbl
   Part No: 4B0 959 655 N
   Component: Airbag 8.4E         5001  
   Coding: 0000307
   Shop #: WSC 02325 785 00200
   VCID: 3B75CEC179845BC6811-515C

1 Fault Found:
00589 - Airbag Igniter 1; Passenger Side (N131) 
            001 - Upper Limit Exceeded - MIL ON
Questions:

1. Is this is the airbag just behind the glove box ? and if so,
2. I see people talking about the wiring under the seat...does that wiring have anything to do with the airbag behind the glove box?
3. Where does one buy an airbag? Any good resources?

When taking the live readings, these are the ones with issue (I was sitting in pax seat) :



Thanks!

P.S. I also read this post ... wondering if I should go there ://

Multiple problems indicative of no one airbag problem. Look elsewhere...connector, etc.

Only because of the multiple problems on your OP.
