Any and all help much appreciated ....

Hello Ed.
the "problem" was created when you turned the ignition on with the airbag disconnected.
you just need to clear the code.
there are few options for that.
1. go to the stillership.
2. get a durametric Porsche Boxster (1997-2004) - Engine Tools - Page 1 cable (the right thing to do if you have an intention to keep the car and work on it yourself).
3. find a generic scanner that can clear airbag codes.
this one could be an option

i havent used it myself (i have a durametric), but somone on another from stated he was able to clear the airbag foult code with it.
