Default 2004 gx470 blinking airbag light with code B0116

Hi all, my GX 470 has had an intermittently blinking airbag indicator light. I noticed when the internal temperature of the car increases, for example if it has been sitting in the sun for a long time, the light always comes on upon starting the car. Had the code pulled and it is a B0116 which indicates driver side seat airbag fault. Only thing I can see written about this is that Lexus will replace wiring harness for 3K. Does anybody know of any cheaper/easier fix?

Normally I'd say replace the wiring harness yourself (remove the seat, etc.) but since this is a safety system, you really want a qualified technician to do this work. Someone with liability insurance.
