Airbag Problem!!!

Hello to everyone!I have a 1.4 16v meg (petrol).Everything worked fine with my Meg till today. I went to my local garage to change air condition's filter (cabin's filter) and something wrong happened. After installing the filter (it is located at passenger's feet) and turning on the engine the air bag's light came on (also came on the Service light)! I turned off the engine, pulled out the card and the message "Steering no locked" came on the computer screen. I must say that the mechanic in order to install the filter removed the passenger's closet!
After that the mechanic checked car's computer and it appeared two faults on the air bag system! As far i remember the computer showed that the passenger's door airbag was faulty! Also i noticed that when i try to close/open passenger's window it closes/opens only for 4-6cm and then stops, then when i press again the switch to close/open the window it happens the same. What might happened? Any wire might disconnected? Any fuse might blew of? Is that happened because the mechanic removed passenger's closet? Is it an electric fault on passenger's door?
Please help!

He is in greece so will have a left hooker, putting access to the filter in his passenger side.
