Confirmed problem caused by faulty spiral cable within the steering wheel. As per conversation with Toyota 1-800-331-4331 on 11/04/13 (case #1311040283) to have dealer confirm problem with as I understood would warranty part only, problem confirmed by dealer 12/09/13,Toyota, [xxx] called declined goodwill warranty. I replaced spiral cable at my expense, horn now works. The spiral cable also contain within it wires for steering radio controls, the air bag and the horn.
