You detached an airbag wire? Was the battery still connected? If so, that would likely be your problem.

have to reset itthrough the diagnostic port since you disconnected it. Do a little searching on supra or sc airbag light reset, what I did was get two male pins and some long wire, pinned them into the proper spots in the diagnostic port, put the seat all the way back and used the bolts for the seat on each side as my ground points while sitting in the seat. You'l have to ground the two wores in a metronome type fashion and watch the airbag light flicker weird, sometimes it takes a minute, sometimes its real easy and quick. I've done this a few times, but it's been a few years

You might want to pull the code first to verify that you didn't create a real issue that set the warning off.
Some people use a simple Radio Shack 3 position toggle switch to make it easier going from pin to pin to ground when re-setting light as Vrank outlined above. Totally not necessary, but helps if you don't have metronomic timing.
