well i know on my wifes escape the air bag light would come on and stay on even dealer couldn't get it to go away and said the airbag system is checking fine and it could be the retractor on the seatbelt mechanism... but on a different escape based forum i came across some one that said to check the plugs that are under the seats they are somehow tied to the airbag/safety restraint system and can trip the light on the dash. come to find out that was the trouble a loose connection from some of her passengers or "friends" sliding the seat forward and back hard and fast (of course it's not their stuff so if it breaks it's not their problem). Anyways i'd check for a plug in under the seats with key out of ignition and then see if light goes away... it did on her escape. I'm not sure on the newer rangers if they have that plug mine is a 98 and yeah its got the airbags but not the stupid seatbelt dinger reminder. ... Hope this helps ya out.

Does it not blink a number of times before it stays solid? count the number of blinks and that is a code, look it up online and it will tell you what the problem is. That is if it is blinking
