there is a fuse under the hood that controls the horn. It actually also controls the hazards also. If your hazards are not working as well, I bet you simply broke a fuse.
I am not sure if cruise control is on that fuse or not, but it might be.

Sounds like when you put the wheel on, things weren't lined up properly and now the contact ring has broken/moved or the connector has pulled itself out somehow.

pull it off and inspect for damaged or broken pieces. Replace those that are.

your clock spring is most likely bad, i have one for 35 shipped.
the clock spring transfers the signals from the horn cruise, etc down thru the steering column.

wiring is built into the unit, so as the wheel turns, the wires turn as well. basic hand tools will do the job.
