Why are my horn and steering wheel controls not working?
After about a week of no horn and no steering wheel controls, my airbag fault light also went on. I bit the bullet and went to a local service center (VolksWerks in Falls Church, VA). The service manager and technicians were awesome and quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem: a damaged clockspring (they called it a “spiral spring”).

What should I do if my car horn is not working?
You can connect the horn negative terminal directly to the car’s body or connect it to the battery negative terminal, which will serve as our negative feed. Next, use a +12 volt feed line from the battery positive terminal to the horn. When you touch the horn terminal, you should hear the horn beep. Horn does beep. The horn itself is good.

The first is a fuse needs replacing (but I don’t know where to find the fuse this might relate to), and the second issue – rather more costly – could be the ‘clock spring’ is knackered….although I understand that would also affect the air bag and horn.
