Airbag Light On & No Horn. Electrical Question

[tm1414]

any one know if the horn and airbag get power together... perhaps under the airbag or steering wheel? had to pull the column and replace the upper bracket assembly because the rod broke behind the key tumbler.. got it back together, installed and horn doesn't work and airbag light is on. I didn't pull them off for this job... thanks

Your clock spring is either disconnected or broken. It is located under behind the steering wheel and is a coil inside an assembly which wires the horn , cruise , and airbag.

Check the cruise control...if it doesn't work...it is the clock spring. (Also known as spiral cable) Mine was broken in my 2000 LX and I had to buy one from Lexus and install. Did it myself...not too tough...but the part was pricey.
