Are there any problem areas where the airbag system shorts on third gens? I ask because I have fixed everything left on my truck this weekend and its working great, except for the airbag light. It flashes a code 12 but only because the fuse in it is blown. When I add a new one it literally blows within a second of putting it in. vehicle on or off, doesn't matter. I'm talking about the underhood fuse of course labeled mini 4 that is for the airbag system only. nothing else is acting weird.
This started happening a bit back and I hadn't had time to troubleshoot it. Any ideas of where to start? I suppose I can check the current to that fuse to start with, but I was hoping for some pointers on problem areas where it might short since following that thing through the harness would be a pain in the ass. Also would a messed up clock spring blow fuses and not show any other symptoms?
