Airbag light - clock spring? and will bag still work?

From what I read, the likely suspect is the Clock Spring under the steering wheel. I will get to that repair as soon as I get a break in the weather, but here is my immediate concern:

- Does the airbag still work in the current condition?

Good question - I'm really only guessing but I think when the airbag light is on, the system is disabled.
