Default Can a bad Beetle key cause the airbag light to come on?

A couple of weeks ago, I tried starting my 2000 Beetle 1.8t and the car
turned over but only stayed running for a few seconds. It tried starting
it again again and it did the same thing for times in a row. The fifth
time turning the key, it finally stayed running but the airbag light
popped on and stayed on. I took it into the dealer and he ran the code
and cleared the airbag light off and told me to use my other key to see
it it would do the same thing again. So far (one day) it hasn't done it
again. Can a bad key cause this sort of problem?
