This is what's happening: When you take the key out, you're engaging the
steering wheel lock thus creating a ground for the horn. When you start the
car the wheel lock disengages, just breaking the ground with the steering
column.
I would think that you're problem is most like the ground strap that is
supposed to exist between the upper steering column and the lower. Make
sure it's there... also, you should also have a ground connected to the
grease fill bolt on your steering rack as well.
I had the same issue.. it took me days to figure it out because the ground
strap on the upper steering column "looked" like it was installed correctly,
but really looped back on itself.
Good luck,
