Am driving a 2012 Ford Fiesta and my steering column got disconnected with my steering. I proceeded to reconnect it and now my power steering is dead, along with the hooter, and I got a power steering and air bag warning lights on my dashboard. What could be wrong and what do i need to replace?

You may need to take this to a service department for the connectors inside the steering column could have been damaged by this incident - the connectors use locking tabs so if wires got pulled - they broke - as in; got separated. Leaving you with a dashboard with lights warning you of the problem. By the way you describe this disconnection - sounds more like - breaking connection and will require repair - unless you're good with a soldering iron and know how to match up wires broken by pulling - best to leave this to a professional.
