Default Air Bag Light flashing, whats it mean?

Its flashing once then 9 times, and it will stay on after it flashes a few cycles.
Anyone know which code this is or what it means?

Basically it means your SRS system is disabled.
I have no side air bags since I switched seats and now my own SRS light does pretty much the same thing (Ford couldn't fix it even with Ford supplied blanks for the missing airbag plugs)
not sure if the 9-count is significant or not, as in, telling you what's wrong specifically. You need to take it to the dealer, have them check the body codes (Which you can't read with most OBDC readers).

Mine went to flashing a few months after I bought the car and the dealer ended up having to replace the air bag assembly.

Pinpoint Test K: LFC 19 and 21/DTC B2293 — Restraint System — Air Bag Status

The RCM checks all of the front air bag circuits for faults. If the RCM detects one of the following faults on any of the front air bag circuits, it will store diagnostic trouble code (DTC) B2293 in memory and flash either lamp fault code (LFC) 19 or 21 depending on the fault (or higher priority code if one exists) on the air bag warning indicator.

Possible Causes
A driver air bag status fault can be caused by:
wiring, terminals or connectors
a faulty clockspring.
a faulty driver air bag module.
a faulted RCM.

A passenger air bag status fault can be caused by:
wiring, terminals or connectors.
a faulty passenger air bag module.
a faulted RCM.

Most faults are due to connector and/or wiring concerns.
