I see the air bag light issue so much, but I never see anyone confirm that it disables all the air bags or just the problem one. Im currently having the issue and planning on unplugging the battery a second time to use contact cleaner to see if it fixes it.

I may be inconsistent and chaotic, but this is what I know about airbags and their indication,
maybe it will lead you to the right line of thought:
1. the safety system is very reliable and under special supervision of the manufacturer, this is due to the manufacturer's reluctance to lose in court.
2. during a trip in our car, the airbag that is intended for a specific person is activated. The driver - always, the front passenger - if the on-board automation understands that the passenger seat is occupied;
3. the "airbag malfunction" indicator is on if: the on-board automation cannot track the seat belt; the on-board automation cannot track the airbag itself; the on-board automation cannot track the presence or absence of a passenger in the seat; general failure of the on-board automation.
The most likely causes are the seat belt and the sensor in the seat. Simply wet or corroded connectors and wiring. Check to clear your conscience.

The issue, the air bag light caused by the wet connection in the passenger side kick panel.
