Default New clockspring, same problem.

3 months ago I threaded a rag between the steering column cover and the steering wheel to clean out some dust and grime. It got caught on something when I pulled it out. Next time I started the Jeep up, the airbag light came on. I replaced the clockspring not five minutes ago and no dice. Any ideas?

Wire harness looks fine, just checked the fuses as well.
