Traction control. air bag. brakes. horn and steering wheel mounted control does not function on my 2013 JK Unlimited. Just removed a sub woofer system because i initially thougbt that was causing the issue. No change. Now im thinking its the clock spring in the steering wheel.
Any other ideas

Thank's

Have you scanned it with an OBDII scanner to see what codes it's throwing?

It certainly could be a bad clock spring though, that's possible.
 
Anti lock braking system internal error and air bag squib error. Auto parts store suggested i take it to the dealer for system trouble shooting . Could be as simple as reprograming ECU or as costly as replacing the ECU. I guess i probably need to go to a junk yard if i need a new ECU.

Does anyone know how to reset the ECU without taking it to a dealer
 
You can reset the ECU by unplugging the battery for 15 minutes or so, then plugging it back in.

Sounds like a possible bad clock spring to me too. What year is your jeep? Depending, there's most likely a recall for it. Mine is an '09 and it had a recall for the clock spring.
