I have a 99 ranger and the air bag light stays on.when u turn the key on the light flashes 3 times then 2 second delay then flashes twice.any help would be appreciated.
 
You can go and have the code pulled for free at auto zone but i would check the connection under your drivers side seat. This happened to my 03. There is a clip under there, make she it did not come unclipped. You can undo it and hook it back up then turn the key and see if the code still flashes.

Thanks for the suggestion !! I'm going to try this on mine.:icon_thumby:
 
A code 32 flashing means high resistance in the driver's airbag circuit. More than likely you have a broken wire in the clockspring assembly behind the steering wheel. They use a thin, flat ribbon with flat wires in them that break from flexing when turning the steering wheel.
