49 problems related to air bag light on have been reported for the 1996 Plymouth Grand Voyager. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Airbag light comes on, and horn fails at same time on an intermittent basis. Mechanic has advised that he has seen the same failure on other Chrysler products recently. Mechanic claims that the wires for the airbag and horn are getting pinched somehow as they come up the steering wheel assembly, and through the device that allows the wires to turn with the steering wheel. Since there is no current recall, we will have this part replaced as it is a safety hazard to drive without a horn and airbag. We have a high mileage vehicle and perhaps this is the start of a problem with this vehicle or maybe this vehicle is a fluke. In any case, I thought you should be aware of the problem.
This van was purchased off lease with 18000 miles and less than 1 year old. After 1 year the vehicle was out of warranty due to mileage (36000). The wipers would go on and off at will. The dealer replaced the battery for $100. 00. The problem continued and eventually lights started to turn on in the interior of the vehicle on their own. The cruise control worked intermittantly. The air bag light came on intermittantly. The body control module was replaced. We didn't leave the dealership and the problem started again. The dealer ordered another body control module. It has been 3 and one half years and now the problems are starting again. The vehicle has stalled on several occassions. The horn does not work. The cruise control does not work. The air bag light is on continuously now. We do not have the $1000 dollars for replacement of the air bag. We understand that there are others with this same problem. Is NHTSA going to make chrystler right these electrical problems. I have read about engine fires due to electrical shorts. It certainly appears that we are not the only ones experiencing electrical problems with our minivan.
The airbag light has been coming on intermittently.
The cruise and air bag light stayed on continuously. The dealer stated the clock spring was the problem and the signals from the steering wheel were not being transmitted correctly. The clock spring was replaced at the consumers expense. The consumer requested a refund due to recall #b24. Mr scc.
While traveling noticed air bag indicator light would stay on. Also, horn would not work. Dealer was contacted. Technician replaced clock spring. Please provide further information.
Speed control and horn stopped working at apprximately the same time. The air bag light came on at approximately the same time. No accident or anything else unusual occurred that would have caused these to malfunction.
The air bag light comes on indicating the air bag is not active, the interior dome lights have gone out. It appears as though there is a short. It has been into the dealer and they are unable to find the problem. This seems similar to a recall on the 1995 vans. The airbag makes this issue a concern to me, and the dealer can not find the problem.
Clockspring mechanism fails causing no cruise airbag light is lit and no horn. Mr.

I read in the wall street journal, dated March 20, 2001, that the NHTSA is looking into a possible defect in the clockspring assembly in the plym voyager. I just wanted to inform you that I had to replace the air bag clockspring on my voyager Mini van a few months ago. I was not in any immediate danger but the airbag light came on a stayed on when the trouble began. My mechanic determined that the air bag clockspring needed to be replaced for which I replaced. I do not know if this is relevent to your inquiry but I thought you should know.
Airbag light comes on . Horn and cruise control are inoperable.
