AIR BAG LIGHT??

[RUNINAGT]

My air bag light has been coming on since I purchased car over a year ago. We scanned it months ago and the code was related to a power supply issue.
The light will flash 5 times then pause for about 2 seconds then flash 2 more times. Then it pauses for about 5ish seconds???
What is the issue here, and if it is a power supply issue where should I start looking?
Thanks for your reply's.

Check out this site for your airbag issues. It gives you all of the codes, so you can find out what exactly is going on.

If the clockspring is broke, then the horn and cruise wont work, correct??? Mine seems to be working fine, well at least the horn does. Last time I checked the cruise it worked fine as well.

thanks I went there earlier and it does not give for the 1993. Im sure the 91-92 are the same though , also I could not find the code 52, if thats even a code?

mine was flashing a code 3. The site said something about a power supply voltage, but what i did was put some electrical tape over the sensor mounting bolts and it stopped! I think it was grounding out on the hood prop rod and hood, but i dunno. I was amazed it was such a simple thing. I guess I need to go get some better grounding bolts.

Just my experience lol

Mine was doing the same thing, but if I remember correctly the horn and cruise still worked. Ended up spending about $500 at Ford to get it fixed. At the time it seemed like nobody but the dealer had a clue in Vegas.

What was it? Do you remember?

It was a bad clock spring. Good luck.

so the clock spring can be bad and the horn still work? cause im under the impression that if the clock spring is bad the horn could still work

yes, the airbag part of the clockspring is more fragile than the horn/cruise part and is quite separate.

Code 52 shows 'Intermittent or Repaired Lost Battery Feed'

hmm my airbag light is intermittently flashing and my horn + cruise doesn't work and i couldn't figure out why. so i guess its the clockspring? how much am i looking at to replace it?
