Angry PLEASE HELP!!
I have a 2001 bmw x5 4.4 and my airbag light is on, the controls on the steering wheel doesn't work, my horn doesn't work, the back window arm doesn't move when u turn it on. I checked the fuses and it seems fine but when i take the fuse off the airbag light turns off and all of the stuff start to work again. Ive also changed the clock spring and its still the same. Please help

What do you mean by back window arm? The wiper. If yes, open your hatch, and look for the wires coming through the body to the hatch. Open that up, and look for damaged wires. You prolly have a short there.

I think it's time to get the car hooked up to a GT1 or Autologic and see what faults are present.
