Default Airbag red light came up on dashboard

I had the Lexus LS400 year 1992. My car got issue with power steering oil leak. The mechanical guys fixed for power steering already. But my car got the new issue of the airbag reg light came up on the dashboard. That mean when I turn on the car, the red light come up with the air bag picture on the dashboard and turn off. Now, when I turn on the car the airbag light (picture) still there all the time. I thought the airbag connection or any circuit to control with airbag sensor. If you have any ideas for this issue, please give me the suggestion to find it down.
Thanks,

Might have cliped/pinched one of the sensor wires while doing the PS. In any case, double what was done with the PS and get the airbag problem diagnosed properly. No sense risking having the thing go off while you are driving. It sounds silly but it happened to a friend of mine with a Mazda.

Have airbag system checked by professional or Lexus dealers.
