I found this: http://www.ehow.com/how_5700543_rese...-windstar.html , but I'm not sure if I can rely on that web site or not. Lost battery feed to me would sound like there was a connector that got disconnected during the service at the shop yesterday.

Can anyone confirm the ABS brakes and Air-Bag system are linked?

Trying to figure out if it was the brake work or other work that led to the air bag light coming on.

EDIT:
Found some more help here at these sites:

I can't, but my stepson disconnected the windshield wiper water jets from where they seat, and when he later depressed the button for spraying, it flooded and would not stop leaking, poured al lover the relays. We had the same problem, until I replaced all of the cheap blue and yellow fuses in the relay box, and then wiped down, with a dry rag, the electricla stuff sticking out of the doors where they contact the door frame, and it stopped. Although, despite being at perfect level with my brake fluid, the abs luight does come on ,when it's cold, on that last hill before home.

It's ford, their electronics and electrical wiring are bad. I replaced, and then just put up with it. My mother has a plymouth, the airbag light goes on all of the time, despite her getting the dealer to service it for that purpose numerous times per year for the past 4 years, AND they charged her 300-400$ for replacing the disk brake pads.
hey told they were worn, so it would be more expensive. No kidding they got away with that.

I priced the same at autozone, like it'd be about 80$
