Normally if the airbag light was on and you replaced the clock spring then after it is repaired the light will go off, but you have to clear the codes.
So, if the light is still on then we need to start with checking for codes because just resetting the light will not fix this issue. Unfortunately, the airbag light only comes on if there is an active issue, so a reset is not the solution.
We need to start with checking for codes. This will tell us what the issue is and if you cannot communicate with the air bag module then the issue is a connection in the repair you made.

I am attaching the process below from the manual on installing the clock spring. As you will see the last step is to just check for the light. If it is on, it takes you back to the diagnostic. This means what I was stating above that there is no reset process after replacement.
Please run through this and let us know what you find. Thanks
