Airbags are filled with a gas when car sensors detect a rapid change in acceleration. So, if you crash your car, the shock will cause the airbags to inflate, pushing the driver back into their seat and saving them from smacking their face on the steering wheel or dashboard. To put it simply, they are emergency safety cushions.

What would cause the horn and cruise control to stop working and the airbag light to flash on a 94 Aerostar?
There is a "clockspring" in the steering column that is probably broken. When the clockspring breaks, the airbag light comes on. The "clockspring" takes the place of the old slip rings and spring loaded contacts used in older cars and is used to transfer circuits from the steering wheel to the stationary column making the airbag, horn and speed control operational. To replace involves removing the airbag. Take it to the dealer.
