hello and i checked the wires you said to check and i have power and i also checked the wires from the horns and they are good so let me ask you a question what does the airbag clock spring have to do with the horn because the wire from the horn pad plugs in to the clock spring so any help would be appricated thank you jimmy

the clock spring is centeredon the steeringwheel so the air bag will operate correctly. if it is removed then anewone is in order. However, airbag systems should only be looked at by professionals due to the damage that it can cause the car as well as person trying torepair it. besides this car shold still be under warranty why are you messing with it.
