Don beat me to it. Definitely the horn.
I had that break on our GT6 but for years I didn't realize what was failing. I kept trying different things to keep the horn working. I finally found the braided earth strap was broken. I Put an external wire on the joint to pass inspection one year. It lasted for about 3 years before it failed. The external wire may not last forever but it certainly is easier to replace than the one inside the steering joint.
