Removed dash to replace heater core. Now turn signals do not work, air bag light is on, and shifter indicator not working. Car starts and runs fine though.

Hi tatertot5220,

Thank you for the donation.

If the hazard lights are not working as well, check the hazard switch wire connectors.

If the steering wheel was removed, you could have damaged the clock spring reel under the wheel esulting the air bag lights indicating

As to the gear shift indicator lights, recheck the wireharness connectors.

Steering wheel was not removed, checked all the connectors. Could the DERM be the problem, is the SIR interconnected with all this?

The turn signals and park position indicators are not related to the DERM.

Sorry I do not understand what is meant by SIR.

The ABS indicator light is related to the DERM and for diagnostics, appropriate equipments would be required.

Could there be a malfunction code that needs to be cleared?

Sorry, I normally refer the restraint system as SRS.

Yes, you would need a scanner to erase the trouble code.
