Could be the contact ring at the back of the steering wheel. It's a common fault - about £60 to replace including labour from a Vaux dealer.

Arn't the pre-tensioners mechanical jobbies ? IE. No electrical trigger?

Reckon ure gonna have to take it to a dealer to get the codes read, 'cos I don't think you can flash 'em out.
Maybe fuse has gone?

seat belt tensioners are covered by this handy light arn't they? have you got the standard wheel, cos on aftermarket ones where some connectors need to be bridged the bridge may have come loose?
