SRS light behavior

My SRS light has been going on and off recently. Usually it will only stay on for a few seconds. What other systems is the SRS light tied to (research indicates maybe voltage regulator??)?

- no ABS or CEL on at all, except normally at startup
- SRS light likes to come on more when ambient temperature is really hot (90+ makes it occur more often)
- ONLY comes on at a stop or coasting, as soon as the car starts moving (even rolling after a stop) the light goes out
- car seems to be running fine, hard cold starts but that is likely due to a small small fuel leak after I changed the filter and didn't tighten everything up (on the top of the to-do list)
- There is NO correlation to steering wheel position and the light being on, so contacts are probably out of the equation.
- Does not matter if there is a passenger or not, still comes on regardless

It seems to be happening more regularly now, especially since it is hot out and I want to make sure it isn't a major issue and/or a safety hazard. Any thoughts? Where can I start diagnosing the SRS system??
