I believe the air bag system must be serviced 10 years from the date of manufacture. Since your profile says you have a 1993, the car could well have been built in the second half of 1992 (my 1996 was built 10/95). Check the build date on the VIN sticker in the driver's door jamb. I know the dealer I go to lists in the service brochure a $39.95 inspection for the SRS on cars that are approaching 10 years.
I'd have it checked out for piece of mind, you wouldn't want the bag to fail in a crash, or to go off from a mild bump.

Get the code checked immediately. As long as that light is on, your air bag system will not work.

Yeah, just take your car to the dealership and they can check out your stuff with the computer. Its better then having an airbag not open or something if you get into an accident.
