    i think there is a fluid resivour under the hood. might check the level on it. kinda like when the brake fluiid gets low, the brake light goes on.
    check the level, its on the drivers side, in the middle of the engine compartment, about 3 in. round resivour.
    any confermations guys???

    There's no fluids of any kind involved in any SRS system. All electrics. Get the code read ( many auto parts stores do it free... I think AAMCO will do it gratis as well) get it serviced at once. Bags are no place to be learning,or poking around on your own. Taking them out and putting them in still make me a bit wary, and I've done it countless times. Wayne

    Clockspring

    There is a ribbon wire connection between the steering wheel and the steering column called a clockspring. This bridges power to the airbag & horn. It has been known to break. Have this checked. Does your horn work?
