Why won't my mercury mountaineer seat heater turn off?

I had the same problem. It is likely the switch that mounts on the seat- Originally I was overthinking the problem- assuming it was a relay. The easiest and cheapest way to check it is to swap the working passenger side button with the driver side's button. Its easy to do- just remove the seat contols and the switch itself is a plug in. Took me less than 10 minutes to do. I now have the passenger side heated seat disabled until I order a new button- which go for about $30 on ebay.

What does a airbag blinking code of 5 4 mean on a 1995 Ford Taurus gl sedan?

It means the primary crash sensor circuit has had a short to ground, possibly an activated crash sensor due to a crash detected, and then the issue has gone away, in other words, it is intermittant. If there has been no crash then there may be an intermittant issue with that crash sensor, or the crash sensor cicuit wiring. The fault code may be cleared to see if the issue returns. The companion code to a 54 is a code 14. When there is a short that occurs, the lamp should flash a 14 at first, then begin flashing the 54 when the short goes away.
