Just stopped working? Never has worked? Installed aftermarket steering wheel? How about some more info?

oh my bad! It just stopped working. it's just my daily commuter car that is bone stock including stock steering wheel. I checked the fuse and the fuse is fine.

My best guess besides replacing it, is check the relay to the horn...

Clockspring in the steering wheel is a pretty common failure, supply power and ground to horn first to see if the horn hasn't failed

Most likely bad cable reel/clock spring. Check the wires to verify.
