While you're working on the horn, you might as well upgrade.

The steering wheel has a brass ring on the back of it, and the horn contact is a brass spring loaded pin. (so it is on my 88). You may be able to see the contact point by removing the steering column trim without removing the wheel. If the spring gets gummed up, it doesn't keep constant contact with the ring as you turn the wheel. Sometimes the grease they put on the ring gets a little dust gummed and causes contact loss too.
If you don't have a steering wheel press, you can try a rubber mallet to the back of the wheel. I was able to simulate a press by using a piece of metal with holes about where the threaded holes in the wheel are, on either side of the nut. put a couple metric bolts in there and tighten, and it pulls the wheel up and off.
