5 audible beeps

I drive 1994 F150 5.0 Auto 238000 miles on it

My horn and cruise control has been out for a couple of years.When this happened my air bag light started blinking 3 blinks and 2 blinks.Now the airbag light stopped blinking.When I start my truck I now get 5 audible beeps then it stops and does the same thing total of 5 times in a row then it stops.I also get this sometimes when I step on the brakes going down the road.This just started 3-25-2006 It sounds like a backup signal when it goes off.Can anyone give be any help?

Code 32 = Drivers Side Air Bag Circuit High Resistance or Open

It means your air bag malfunction light bulb has burned out........really.

"From FORD Service CD" If a system fault is present and the air bag indicator is malfunctioning, an audible tone will be heard, indicating that system service is required. The tone is a series of five sets of five beeps. This does not indicate a diagnostic trouble Code 55. If the tone is heard, the air bag indicator is inoperative and a system fault that requires service is present

My guess is that you have a bad clockspring.

A device that transfers the commands of the steering wheel buttons to the wiring in the column. It's under the steering wheel.
