Its likely the clock spring, aka sliding contact. Fords/Lincolns are famous for these failing. It's basically the component behind the steering wheel that provides power to everything on the wheel, while allowing the wheel to spin. $160 for the part.

Does the cruise control, volume control and the other steering wheel controls work? This is likely the clockspring, which is located inside the steering wheel assembly

2003 Lincoln ls v-8 cruise control won't engage. Light won't come on or anything when I hit the button. Everything else work fine.

My 2001 Lincoln ls cruise control will not work. Put in a new clockspring and that did not fix it. radio controls and horn work but the air bag light stays on continually after starting. The lights on the cruise side will go on an off -I have bought that part to replace but don't want to put on if that is not the problem.

I own a 2001 Lincoln LS, my horn isn't working. Which fuse controls the horn?

it is doubtful the horn fuse is the problem, it is more likely the clock spring contact under the steering wheel, the fuse for the horn is located in the underhood fuse box,

Loss of functionality in all buttons on steering wheel including horn. 2001LS

Check your fuses first, if it isn't a fuse it is not a do it yourself situation. The lincoln stearing wheel has a ton of electronics in it along with the air bag.

Air bag light is on... The str wheel controls r never correct

You have a bad clock spring. This is located behind the steering wheel and all electrical functions from steering wheel must go thru it. Pretty common problem on this model. The steering wheel and the steering column trim would have to be removed to replace it.

Steering wheel controls

Replace the clock spring, or check all the cabling and plugs first. If you are inexperienced take it to an auto electrician, otherwise do it yourself but disconnect the negative battery terminal for 2 minutes prior to opening the steering wheel to check the plugs, as not doing so could cause the airbag to go off. In addition you can also take out the airbag fuse. Check radio control plugs and close it up again and reconnect everything in reverse order. If that doesn't fix it, then have the clock spring replaced professionally, its too much mucking around if you don't know what you're doing.
