Cruise control would not engage. Icon on dash just flashed when" set "was depressed. I tried all cruise switches to verify if it was a stuck switch. Pressing cruise" on "and "coast" switches on steering wheel causes horn to sound. Dealer said the brake switch was the cause due to a missing ground buss. The vehicle uses ground switching so the horn should be on all the time. The horn still sounds when switches are depressed. I feel cause is in the steering wheel hub and am concerned this can effect the air bag deployment.
