What gomer_110 is trying to tell you is that you can't check the resistor in-circuit. You will need to disconnect one end of the resistor from the sensor circuit to get a good reading.

To pick a nit: It's not the connector that is the problem (unless you have a bad connector), it's what's hooked up to the connector (seat sensor).

The seat sensor is an entirely separate item. It's NOT connected to the same harness as the airbag and therefore has no effect on the resistance reading.
