Charles,
Here's a quote from Anders on this BB a few months ago.
Russell Giuliano asked: "Just picked up a 92 900 n/a, was going through service bills, when I noticed a 'contact reel' was replaced twice by Swedish Connection. Any idea what this could be?"
Anders replied: "It's probably the clockspring looking device that transfers electricity to the air bag and horn buttons in steering wheel. It sits right where the steering wheel meets the column.
Maybe the former owner had problems with airbag light coming on."
------
It's my understanding that when the clocksprings wears out, it breaks, interrupting current flow to the airbag (thus the SRS light) and the horn button on the steering wheel. I don't know how much they cost to replace but remember seeing them for sale on SAABNET sponsor sites.
Hope this helps!
