Default 1994 f150 fuse problem

I have a 1994 f150 and none of the buttons on the steering wheel work (horn, cruise control) and the dash light for the air bag blinks constantly and was wondering which fuse it is, because i can't find it on the fuse panel cover.

Just check through to see if any are bad. It might not be a fuse though, could be a short or broken connection.

i would wager a guess that the "tone wheel" inside of the steering wheel could be the culprit, or you have a broken wire inside of the steering column.

Default Steering wheel buttons

The broken buttons, horn and the flashing airbag light is due to a broken clockspring.. I have had two of these trucks and a van that this has happened to. It is a simple fix that should olve your problem.
