If you pull the airbag from the steering wheel there should be two wires coming from behind it back in the steering column.

On my car one of the wires got severed right at the column, like what the f uck.

Maybe you got the same dealio.

Those would be the clockspring wires for the horn and cruise control.

The wires are coming out of the airbag unit.

Yes there are red wires for the horn, but I believe the wires were black, or dark in colour from the airbag.

There is one connection that goes into the back of the airbag unit for the airbag and then horn. The other wires will plug into the cruise contols.

here is a question.....when the airbag light is on, do you have heat and turnsignals????

just for giggles, try starting your car, then turn the key back just a little....dont turn it off, but turn it back just a little until the key stops.....same to you xdeathwishx....maybe it gets bumped back a little when your is off, but when the light is on, the key might not be back all the way....just try it out, its worth a shot
