Well, it depends on why the airbag light is on. My airbag light is on also, and it's due to a bad clockspring. Try the horn, and see if the cruise control works. If the horn doesn't work, and the cruise doesn't work it's probably a bad clockspring. Haven't gotten around to changing mine yet, it's not that big of an issue to me.

Just bought mine last week with air bag light on as well. Horn dont work either, havent checked yet but i bet the cruise control is out as well. All signs of a faulty clockspring. They can be had for i think $110-150 new. I wouldnt worry much about it, inspect the vehicle yourself, or have a knowledgable friend/family member do it. Dont trust car fax. I sold mustang wrecked with a clean title. The buyer coulda fixed and sold it again with a clean title and it was tweaked hard.

well if something is messed up then that is a price negotiating point...he wants 1900 and it could cost for example 400 to professionally repair...offer 1500
