Steering Wheel Electrical Problem

Recently the airbag warning light has been intermittantly going on and off. Well today the light flashes all of the time and the horn and cruise control no longer work. I am thinking that the problem is a main connection somewhere but I have no idea on where to find it. I have checked most of the connections under the dash and in the engine compartment but can't find any loose connections. Any ideas????

It is a '94 extended cab 4x4 w/351 & OD Tranny

Steering Wheel Electrical Problem

VMAN128, The problem is in the steering wheel electrical link. It is known as the clockspring. It is a spring-loaded wire assembly in the steering wheel that leeds from the column to the horn button, cruise control, and airbag assembly. The same happened to my brothers 94' f-150. The dealership that I normally use had the part in stock. Good luck
