2004 Lincoln LS V8 Airbag Clock Spring

[McBeetus]

Hello everyone,

I've been scouring the internet looking for a place to buy a new airbag clock spring assembly to replace that in my 2004 LS V8. The cruise control controls are not currently working, and will not power on. Most sites I look at can't even find the part number. Does anyone know where to find a new one at a decent price?

Part number is 3W4Z-14A664-AA.
This place may have it: 3W4Z-14A664-AA - Ford Parts Giant
$366, ouch. It's no longer made, so it depends on if they actually have stock.

Have you done correct troubleshooting to verify that it is really the clockspring. It seems to be a very rare failure on the 2nd gen.
Pinpoint testing for the cruise control is here: 2006 Lincoln LS Workshop Manual

Note that I had a cruise control failure on my 04. It was the button assembly on the steering wheel. The on button was not working. The rest were okay.
The switch assembly is 3W4Z-9C888-BAA, at $106 (It was about $40 when I replaced mine.) 3W4Z-9C888-BAA - Ford Parts Giant
