Horn ground issues


This is one for Jim.  I've missed his advice over the past six months.  I
spent a few hours playing with my horn the other day in a vain attempt to
make it work again.  I narrowed the problem down to the ground wire
connnection at the steering box end.  It doesn't ground i.e the steering
mechanism isn't grounded to the car somehow.  If I run a wire to grounnd
from the end of the ground wire it works fine and I can clip an alligator
clip around the plugged together conection and ground it as well.  I've
sanded the connection and the only thing I can figure is that the thing
that the plug is screwed to is no longer grounded due to corrosion or
whatever.  This is the penultimate step to inspection and daily driver
status so please help.
