I seem to recall the sensors on the early cars fail after being wet for prolonged periods.
When I removed the carpets from my car, although the carpets appeared to be dry, the foam stuff was sodden underneath.
The water had been coming in from around the big tube thing under the rear seat, which had a rusted hole in it.
When the garage read the fault codes on my car, the only thing coming up was the seatbelt tensioner circuit, which was due to a corroded connector, which has been replaced, so I consider myself to have dodged a bullet in that respect.
I'm sure some of the more experienced hands will come up with a detailed explanation for you.
Chris.
