THE CLOCKSPRING CONNECTOR ROUTES THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG AND HORN WIRING FROM THE ROTATING STEERING WHEEL TO THE STATIONARY COLUMN. IT BROKE, LEAVING BOTH THE AIRBAG AND HORN INOPERATIVE. I NOTICED AN ERRATIC AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT FOR 6 MONTHS AND RECENTLY FOUND THE HORN NO LONGER WORKED. I REPLACED THE CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY AND TOOK APART THE OLD UNIT TO DIAGNOSE. IT DOES NOT USE WIPERS, BUT RATHER A COILED FLAT CABLE WITH ~ 6 FLAT COPPER LEADS. SINCE MY VAN DOES NOT HAVE CRUISE CONTROL, ONLY 3 OF THE LEADS ARE USED. I FOUND THAT THE FLAT CABLE IS FOLDED BACK TIGHTLY UPON ITSELF TO SECURE AT THE INNER ROTATING CONNECTOR. ALL THE LEADS WERE BROKEN AT THIS SHARP BEND. A THIN PLASTIC SHEET IS AGAINST THE CABLE AT THIS TIGHT FOLD IN AN APPARENTLY LAME ATTEMPT AT STRAIN RELIEF. THIS DESIGN IS GUARANTEED TO FAIL AFTER SO MANY TURNS OF...

WE FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM IN JUNE OF 1999. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT AND CHIME WOULD GO OFF INTERMITTENTLY, PARTICULARLY ON BUMPY ROADS. WE WOULD CHECK ALL THE DOORS, THEY WOULD ALL BE SHUT. WE TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER WE'D PURCHASED IT FROM. ON 6/28/99 THEY RE-ALIGNED THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR TO "FIX THE PROBLEM". EVERYTHING WAS OK FOR AWHILE. WE NOTICED THE PROBLEM AGAIN IN SEPT OF 1999. WE RETURNED TO THE DEALER 10/8/99; THEY REPLACED THE DRIVER-SIDE SWITCH. THE PROBLEM CONTINUED. ON 10/21/99 THEY EXAMINED THE CAR AND ORDERED A BODY CONTROL MODULE. AT THIS POINT IT WAS ALMOST CONTINUOUS DINGING AND FLASHING OF THE DOME LIGHTS.THEY REPLACED THE MODULE ON 11/3/99. IT WAS BETTER FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS, AND THEN THE DINGING AND FLASHING STARTED AGAIN. WE CONTACTED THE DEALER, THEY ORDERED ANOTHER MODULE, WHICH WAS INSTALLED ON 12/29/99. THE PROBLEM CONTINUED.
