The fact that the Cruise control works indicates the Clockspring is good. You need to troubleshoot the horn circuit itself. If you are not hearing the click of the relay, then you could have a problem with the horn switch.

The horn switch is the button you push to activate the horn. Be prepared, many of them are part of the air bag and cannot be bought separately.

When I took it to a mechanic he said he could hear the relay and diagnostics said it was clock spring but that didnt work. So I don't know nothing about horn circuit and how can I test it?

Sounds like you need a different mechanic. If you hear the relay clicking, the means everything is working and it probably just a bad horn.

I have no idea what a pulse divider is but you need to start a fresh question for that.
