While replacing my turn signal, I managed to break the bottom cover for the steering column. While I was awaiting a replacement, my wife used my Jeep and managed to pull the ribbon looking cable loose from its connections. I thought about soldering it back together but not knowing the way it went originally...

First, would you recommend replacement or repair?

Second, if repair, how would I go about determining the right leads?

As it stands, my Check Engine and Airbag light are lit. Yes, they are correct as it appears no power will go to the airbag (horn doesn't work either).

Take Jeep to Dealer... Take keys from Wife... Airbag connections are better serviced by Pros, unless you're familiar with the system. :bball: GO HEAT !!!
