Exclamation HELP .Airbag light stays on,horn doesnt work ...

I replaced the clock spring thinking that was it ,and I checked the fuses. My horn,interior lights ,and power door locks dont work .Also,when I start it ,the airbag lights blinks ,and then stays on .

What else is there ? Its a 97gt ,5speed.


p.s.-I just had the entire dash out ,replacing the heater core. There is one plug behind the glove box that is not hooked to anything .

Yup. It was disconnected while I did the core swap ,and the clock spring swap .

The reason I did the clock spring swap in the first place is because these problems were happening after I put the dash back on from doing the core change. Thats when I noticed the electrical problems.

ITS FIXED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok,the big *** plug on the drivers side floor with the bolt in it wasn't tightened all the way ! It was plugged in tight ,but I said hey,what do I have to loose ? So I tightened down on the bolt a few times , stuck the key in the ignition ,puckered my *** cheeks ,and turned the key . The chime was goin,dome lights were on,oh it was sweet sweet music !

Thanks to everyone who chimed in (pun intended) and offered up their advise .I know you guys probably haven't slept in day because of this (yeah right) ,but you can rest easy that muh Stang is back in business !!
