My dad noticed the air bag warning light flashing on and off at random shortly before he died. Once I was given it as a gift by him in his last will, I experienced the same activity with the light, "and" now have no horn and the headlights sometimes flash on and off like their is a short in the electrical system...not sure if the airbag currently functions or not!

Air bag flashing a code and the horn no longer works. Local dealer reported the "clock spring" has failed and is not covered by warranty or current recall, repair costs would be around $150. Dealer reports that the air bag may or may not work in an accident. I did not have the repairs done. Recent research at your site noted other '94 fords having the same problem. Wanted to add to those reports because, like me, there are probably thousands of other owners that are driving around with a flashing air bag warning light or paid for the repair that should have been a "recall" because of some defect.

3 replacements of the clock spring in the steering column of a 1994 ford f-150 pickup truck. The horn stops working and the warning light on the dash comes on for faulty airbag. A ford technician informed me the airbag may not properly deploy if not corrected. Continued problems with the same part seems to indicate a manufacturer's problem. Serious consequences if the airbag will not properly deploy.
