SOURCE: SRS light stays on

This is most likely a wiring issue in the steering column.  I advise you not to attempt to repair this on your own unless you are an experienced mechanic.  If you do be very cautious as the airbag wiring runs through there and can be a very dangerous mistake.

SOURCE: steering wheel controls

Replace the clock spring, or check all the cabling and plugs first. If you are inexperienced take it to an auto electrician, otherwise do it yourself but disconnect the negative battery terminal for 2 minutes prior to opening the steering wheel to check the plugs, as not doing so could cause the airbag to go off. In addition you can also take out the airbag fuse. Check radio control plugs and close it up again and reconnect everything in reverse order. If that doesn't fix it, then have the clock spring replaced professionally, its too much mucking around if you don't know what you're doing.

SOURCE: Horn, Steering Wheel, Cruise Control

Replace the Clock spring. It is mounted behind steering wheel. It alows electrical connection while the wheel turns.

SOURCE: Would appreciate help for a Toyota Corolla 2007 non-working horn.

If the horn works with direct connection, and fuse, relay, and circuit breaker are all good, it's the switch in the steering wheel. If it is anything like the chrysler auto's, the switch and the air bag module is all one unit, can't replace just the switch, the whole thing, and it's about $700 to $800 for those units, at least it is here, and can only get them at a dealer.

SOURCE: Horn, cruise control, and radio controls on steering wheel do not work ?

The clockspring behind the steering wheel is possibly defective or unplugged. It is the one and only component that all of your symptoms have in common.

Honda Odyssey 2007 cruise control, horn, keyless entry stopped working all together at one time!!

There could be a fuse or relay issue since multiple systems became inoperative simultaneously. I'd suspect that when the alarm went off, someone targeted and disabled the horn system so that it wasn't honking inside the repair facility. Both the horn switch and cruise control switch are located in the steering wheel and therefore they share common components and circuitry. Try checking under-hood fuses #7 (7.5A), #13 (20A), #15 (40A) and #20 (40A), as well as under-dash fuses #7 (7.5A) and 21 (7.5A). If all these fuses are OK, much deeper diagnosis will need to be performed. One somewhat common failure item is the spiral cable (also called a clock spring) that transfers power to the steering wheel (while allowing it to turn). That part can be seen within the steering angle replacement procedure shown here: https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/how-to-replace-a-steering-angle-sensor-by-marvin-sunderland

2007 Nissan Maxima horn stopped working how much to fix it what could be the cause

It depends on what's wrong with it . Does your vehicle have any other buttons on the steering wheel ? cruise control , radio control etc... Is the air bag light lit on the instrument cluster ? A common part that fails in all make an model vehicles is the clock spring . It's located under the steering wheel on top of the steering column . If any other buttons on the steering wheel aren't working an the air bag light is lit more then likely the clock spring is bad .Watch this video . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMbGhxdXrUc
If not this could be the horn relay , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDn4ZKJsdpY

Testing electrical circuits are required to find the problem .
