could be the clock spring in the steering wheel or the plug that goes to the airbag you must disconnect battery for 30 mins before you take off the airbag from the steering wheel

Yup, that solved it in mine, airbag light used to flicker sometimes on rough roads. Strange thing is that it'd nearly always start in the same place on one road and stop in the same place on another  ...

I had the same problem. After checking out other suggestions here on forum, I finaly found bad soldering on the connector in back of the instrument pannel. Resoldered, and problem has been gone since. (over a year ago) Also had another symptom caused by the same soldering problem; trip-counter sometimes resets and all instruments wiped all over when ignition was turned on.

In my case I found that waggling the computer module accessible at the front of the drivers seat under the seat cushion sorted the problem of a poor connection, really easy, try that first.
