Hi, ON your 2002 ford taurus, The Flashing code 33 ( B 2292 )

Check the conecctions under the driver seat.
Repair as need, and recheck if thi code is present.

But if you had an accident on you taurus. You need to replace the Seat belt Pretentioner ( seat belt bucklet)

OK. I hope this information work for you.

SOURCE: Air Bag Code

Code 52 relates to low voltage detected in a capacitor inside the airbag module. 45 seconds after key on, this capacitor should have a voltage of around 23 volts.

This capacitor stores energy to deploy the airbag in the case of a collision.

Because your airbag light is on, your system is deactivated (cannot deploy)

In your case, the airbag computer detects less than 23 volts at that capacitor 45 seconds after key on, and disables the system.

There is a diagnostic procedure involved in fixing this problem, but usually means a bad airbag module (computer)

This should only be checked by a qualified technician, as airbag service can be dangerous and there are strict procedures to follow so the bags don't inflate suddenly and cause injury.

you need to have the codes read for the air bag to know for sure which direction to start ,but yes, they are all tied in to the clock spring.
