I had the same problem with mine, and got a used steering wheel with airbag on ebay for $75.00. Just make sure you disconnect the battery before replacing the airbag pad/horn assembly and you will have no problems. I have seen these on ebay from what i apid up to $200 odd, but still way cheaper than new.
It could possibly be the clock spring which is 4 wires that take power from the column side of the steering wheel up to the airbag, horn, cruise and radio buttons. Don't know why it's called a clock spring - it's not a spring and has nothing to do with a clock - maybe the parts naming guy got sick of labels like "door button" and "indicator" and went for something from this bit of wiring. But I doubt it's this.
The problem is actually caused by the horn button being stuck - I don't know of any way to actually fix it properly, but I did fix mine using "bush mechanics" while I waited for delivery of the "new" (used) airbag.
