Takata recall (?) air bag fault indicator flashes continuously. Replacement part (control module) is not available, and this problem is widespread among all early miata's. Miata bloggers recommend "snipping the red wire leading into the module (located near steering column) to eliminate the annoying flashing light. No way. This should be a recall. The air bags on these cars are inoperable. Its a first generation miata widespread problem and replacement parts are not available.
