Drivers Side Airbag Fault

Light came on and mechanic scanned and cleared it one time. It was a "drivers side airbag tolerance" fault. A few days later, the light is back. Mechanic says next step is to do a pin out test and use a resistor to determine if the issue is with the wiring / SRS module or with the airbag itself. He says it will take a couple of days to accomplish this test. I assume that is mostly time waiting for the light to come on, not actual wrenching time. Does this sound right?

What was the EXACT fault?
All depends on the exact fault code as the system is smart enough to pinpoint the issue directly.
