UPDATE FIXED* Clock spring replaced problem solved! - Airbag light stuck on

Original Post ***So... anybody ever have this light come on randomly for no reason? Ive had the truck 7 years and never had this issue.

I believe any recalls that were out for the 4runner airbags have been addressed

I checked under seat connections, all looks and felt fine. I don't want a takata airbag to the face.***
----------------------------------------------

Update*** Had the code scanned which after doing some google searching all signs pointed to Clock spring. I ordered an OEM genuine toyota part off ebay. Part number in picture.
-Also disabled my TPMS light while I was already there.

Quick Write up with steps. :

-Disconnect Battery for at least 10 minutes.
-3 Phillips screws around steering column shroud (must turn wheel side to side to get each screw but always return to center)
-remove shroud and small plastic cover plates on each side of wheel
-Remove 2 T25 screws that loosen but dont completely remove
- Pull horn/airbag assembly towards you gently.
-disconnect Horn ground wire, Radio control Plug and the Red and Black airbag power (from the airbag side!) CAREFULLY
-Remove horn/airbag completely
-19mm nut for steering wheel
-Always return wheel to center after loosening nut
-use steering wheel puller( I didnt) or Bang on the wheel a few times and it will come loose, then simply pull towards you.
-Careful of wires!
- remove wheel completely
-Remove 2 plugs on bottom of Clock spring Black one and yellow one. CAREFULLY not to bend the pins!
- Remove 4 small phillips screws holding clock spring
-install new clockspring and make sure wheels are straight and the clockspring is set to center!!!
-retighten 4 phillip screws
-carefully break orange tab off and make sure its still center!
- replug in the 2 plugs to the new clock spring on the bottom.
- reinstall steering wheel snug!
-Becareful of wires!!
-Plug back in radio wire, ground to horn and airbags CAREFULLY
-Snap center horn/airbag into place and retighten T25 screws
-Reinstall Shroud
-DONE!
