No cruise, no horn, AND an airbag light

[John D]

All came at the same time, nothing I did to induce it. Are they connected, or a fluke? I don't have a map of the fuse panel, so I can't do anything short of pulling each fuse one by one and checking. Any body have the fuse locations, its a 98.

Thanks

All the items are connected through the clockspring assy in your steering column. The clockspring contains the wires that go from the steering wheel switches to the steering column wiring harness. The only way to fix it is to replace the clockspring assy. You will need to pull the airbag(after disconnecting the battery and waiting 2 minutes first, this is very, very important), then the steering wheel and column shroud. It really is easy to replace as long as you have a steering wheel puller. Once you reconnect the battery after reinstalling everything, all these things should work just fine.

So THATS what that clockspring thing does. I saw them on jeepsareus.com site and wondered what they did. I thought they were part of the airbag system itself. Makes sense.
