My '90KT SRS was tripped by corrosion in the left front impact sensor. Anecdotal information from a couple of indys here indicate that this is also a common problem - probably more so in snowny, salty areas like upstate NY.
As far as the "clock spring" contact is concerned, just get a voltmeter and test its continuity after it has been unplugged. (Never use a voltmeter to test an airbag!) It is simply two connectors connected by 4 long flat wires, 2 for the horn and two for the steering wheel airbag. Obviously, if one of the circuits is open, the SRS controller cannot fire the airbag, so if this is the fault, clearly the driver's airbag will not deploy. Again with the anecdotal information, I've been told conflicting stories about whether the part of system that is not directly related to a fault is operational when the SRS trips. If you plan to rely on this safety system, it's probably best not to assume anything and get it entirely operational.
