If the horn has been intermittent it’s unlikely to be the rotary coupler. It’s often referred to as the clock spring for a reason, it’s just that a coiled spring which winds or unwinds as you turn the wheel. If one of the ways fails & that carries the horn current, it fails, there is no half way house, Twang, no connection.
The horn didn’t work on my car when I bought it, it turned out that a relay in the MFU had gone bugger up. There is however a couple of connectors between one & the other & there is a chance of intermittentsy.
