Your airbag warning light is on, and the seatbelt pretensioner indicator is flashing. A diagnostic scan revealed a code related to the driver's seatbelt buckle sensor. Upon inspection, you found that one of the wires connected to the seatbelt latch has broken off and is shorter than it should be. The fix will likely involve replacing the seatbelt buckle assembly or reconnecting and repairing the damaged wire.
