Air Bag repair question: Flash Code is 3-2

“Driver Air Bag Circuit Resistance High or open.”

Doing research, suggestions are a sensor in the circuit, perhaps
behind the front grill. These parts are hard wired in the air bag
system.

Another suggestions is the coil spring in the steering column which
indicate this is the problem in 95% of the cases for this code flash.

I can replace the coil spring – following ALL the warnings to disarm
the air bag and following my research.

Would you think it is the coil spring as the sensors have not been
damaged by an accident?

A coil spring is ~$70 vs $250- $300 for shop repair.

A Rotunda Air Bag Simulator 105-00010 is a 2 ohm resistor that
simulates an air bag connection. That would be another DIY cost if in
90-95% of cases it is just the coil spring.

Thoughts?
