Certainly agree with Bob.
I would think that the stator harness (inside the stator tube which is
inside the steering shaft which is inside the steering column) is damaged.
The stator harness can be changed without actually removing the stator
tube, easier on your car with the adjustable steering wheel,  but it takes
careful work and some degree of patience.

    The horn button grounds the circuit IIRC (the lead is hot). Check
    the connectors out of the steering box, but if it&#39;s not that then,
    yeah, you have something exposed to ground somewhere.<br>
