Thanks, yes that was going to be my next check. Battery will certainly be disconnected well before any fiddling - I'm fairly paranoid about airbags/tensioners. I'm working on the basis that I shouldn't test the tensioner with a multimeter! What would be useful to know is what the impedance of it should be so I can connect a resistor to the wiring and see if that clears the fault. Certainly there have been plenty of issues caused by grubby/oxidised connectors on this car so far.
Is there any definitive visual way of checking if the tensioner has been fired? The only reference I can find says that it will not reel the belt back in if it has been fired. Mine does, but without much enthusiasm.
