Electrical problem

A friend has a 98 Taco, 3.4 auto with ac and cruise, no power windows or locks.
He has lost his horn, cruise and the airbag light is on.
All fuses are good.
Does anyone now of a common problem with this or know where to start looking?

Did you recently install a body lift, or did you disconnect the steering wheel from the steering gear at the rag joint for any reason? It sounds like a broken spiral cable to me. If you spin the steering wheel with the steering disconnected you run the risk of breaking the cable.

No body lift and steering wheel has not been off or disconnected.

I'm wondering if a connector pack is loose or has been disconnected. Has anything been done to the instrument panel or cluster? Such has indiglo gauge or radio work?
