Default Airbag Light

Any idea what would make the airbag light flash? I had an extra steering column complete so i put that in but the light is still flashing. Had the battery disconnected the whole time also.

count the flashes. it will flash a couple times, then a short pause, then some more flashes. for example. 4 flashes - pause- 2 flashes = code 42. it will repeat over and over. then let us know what code you have.

The code was 72, but i found out how to fix it!! Here it is, the Mustang Service Manual makes it look as if it's in the glove box, which we all know that it's not. Look directly under the glove box and you will see a large wiring harness that goes to the computer. The plug - gray with one black wire and a brown/blue wire was taped to that harness (at least in my case). If it were a snake it would have bit me. You can only clear the codes after the problem is fixed (i.e. 52,53, 64 etc.). Cycle the key to on engine off and airbag light to flash the code at least one time but before the light stays on. Once it flashes the code once, connect a jumber wire to the two prongs. After about 5 seconds the diagnostic module will beat 5 times. Remove the jumber cables and wait to see if there are other codes. If so just repeat the steps. That's it.
