On most vehicles, the airbag light should come on for @6 seconds, and then go off if the system is working properly. If there is a fault or a problem in the system, the light will remain illuminated, or flash continuously. If the airbag light does not work properly, some vehicles have an audible tone that sounds indicating a problem with the airbag light system. When the light is on (or the tone is sounding), the airbag will NOT deploy, even in an accident.
The flashing light on your car is telling the answer you need. On some vehicles, the light is flashing a two digit code. Once you know the code, you can most likely repair it yourself. There are fairly easy procedures that most people are capable of repairing.

wallyhow do i reset the airbag light for my Lincoln LS 2001, i hit a pothole andthe airbag light came on.
I think the clockspring in your steering column has broken. Have you noticed any issue with your cruise control and volume controls not working? If you have it is definitely the clockspring which will have to be repaced. The light is on because the bag on the column will not work since there is no continuity.
