Default air bag light

i have a 2001 f250 7.3 regular cab. i have the passenger side air bag turned off with the key. but the light saying it is off doesnt come on anymore i also have a like on dashboard for the air bag. i need to get it fixed but took it to ford they wanted $1000 dollars just to look at it. i need to know if it is safe because i have a 3 month old the rides there when he goes with me and i dont want anything to happened to him. i tryed selling my truck and getting a new one but so far up sided down cant sell it. can someone give me any ideas i will try it. my son means then world to me and dont want to see him get hurt by it for not trying.

Take it to a body shop and see what they can find for you. More than likely its a squib failure or a switch failure. Last 2 airbag lights I saw were squib failures.
