Does replacing the steering column fixthe airbag?
No, the airbag system, and the steering system are completely different. The airbag, in the centre of the steering wheel (i assume) can be replaced. Lets say for example, your vehicle has a crash, and the airbag is deployed, you will need to replace it, and then remove any fault codes from the airbag module (or ECU).
If the airbag light is illuminated, but the airbag hasn't deployed, this indicates a general fault (which shouldnt be ignored)
Personally id have this investigated by a trained technician, as an exploding airbag isn't something i'd like to be standing next to!
SRS systems are complex and rely on a control module, its more electric than it is mechanical, replacing a steering column would just simply; replace the steering column...
