The pattern of the flashing actually indicates a code. As in three flashes, a pause, then two flashes. As usual, get the code and post it here  Also don't worry about it deploying. When a fault is detected the airbag is completely disabled so it won't go off. Without knowing the code I'd say off the top of my head one of the sensors has probably gone bad.

I feel your pain, I have had that code off and on for 2 years now. First time it came on I took it to the dealership and they cleaned the connector for free. It came back on about 6 months later.
Im thinking of cleaning it myself, then using some kind of sealer to completely cover the connector to keep it from going bad again.

I have had that one also. I thought I cleaned the sensor mounting point well but it would reappear intermittantly. The last time I remove the sensor and I cleaned the metal on the radiator support, sensor mount and the mounting bolt really well with a wire wheel on a Dremal tool. That seems to have fixed it.

I remember my first time seeing the Air Bag light flash... happened when I went to get gas, and started it back up, thats when I found CEG! I was so about to jump out of the driver seat in fear of the air bag deploying.... then I learned Air Bag light = Error and it wont work, made me feel safe Though I never saw it flash again.... wonder if it was just a 12 signal, that was the first time I drove the contour in awhile when it did that
