Have searched both the archives and web. Have a notion on what the issue may be.

Symptoms:
Horn works fine when car is off
Horn does not work when car is on and steering is straight
Horn works when car is on and there is some steering angle

Brake lights, stop lights, cruise, etc work fine.

Possible problems:
Horn itself - tested and works
Horn relay - not tested but I doubt it
Cable reel/clock spring - could be an issue but I do not see any other problems
Bad ground in steering shaft

Anyone have other ideas? I found several threads but no concrete solutions.

 

does it not work in the key on position or just when its running

 

Key in on position and running the symptoms are the same. If there any steering angle beyond 10 degrees the horn works. Otherwise if the steering is straight the horn doesn't.

 

did u have a airbag recall recently done

 

Airbag recall was on 01/02s as far as I remember. To answer you question, no there was no airbag related recall done.
