Check the wiring at the horn contact, if good, jump the horn with another battery to see if they do indeed work. If they do, then the problem is with the contact button. Take it from there.
10w40 will do just fine. I use Motul.

I have a 1982 GW 1100 Interstate 20 90 18 front Michelin mu90 b16 78H rear Dunlap
1980 was the first new version of the Goldwing Interstate. It came with the 1100 engine. That lasted till 1983, then the "84's came out with the 1200, good till 1987, then the 1500's. The 1980 Interstate all dressed cost me just $ 5,000.00 here in Canada, those were the day's.
The best way would be to pick up a manual. Just too many things to do.
The standard comes with no extra equipment, fairing or side bags. The interstate is a full dress right from Honda.
