Default Airbag DTC 00588

Airbag light came on. Got the following code:

00588 Airbag Igniter Driver Side (N95)
32-10 Resistence to High Intermittent

Cleared code and light goes off for the weekend. Going to work this morning, I go over some rough road filled with potholes and the airbag light comes on again. I'm thinking I might have a loose connection. But which and where? Any ideas.

One other odd thing is that when I press to honk the horn, the steering wheel area under the airbag sounds like an old bed with bad springs. Coincidence, or connected, to the airbag light coming on?

The car is a 1996 A4 without side airbags. Thanks for the help.
