I labeled the problem as a "pain in the ass" due to the following reasons:
due to the problem, NOTHING on the steering wheel worked which includes the horn, cruise control and the airbag module- not only does it not work, the airbag light blinks on the dash. Also annoying (and unsafe!)
Replaced clockspring myself, bought unit from ford for just over 100 dollars, instructions are in the box with clockspring- if you aren't familiar with car repair and electrical work, DO NOT attempt to do this yourself. It does require removal of the airbag and steering wheel. Not for amateurs.
