Squeaky steering wheel

2002 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V
75,000 miles
2.5 ltr 4 cyl
6spd trans
i have a very annoying problem that has me a little perplexed. my steering wheel squeaks like a crying mouse when i turn the wheel after driving for a little while.
if the car sits for a moderate period of time, the noise goes away only to come back again after driving for about 10-15 min.
this is a new problem.
it makes the noise regardless which position the tilt column is in.
it makes the noise in both the left and right turns\
thanks for any ideas

I can't remember for sure on this model but on some in between the wheel & the colum there is a button that contacts the horn plate. The plate turns the button is stationary. When the plate gets dry you get a squeeking noise on turns. If you lay down on your back & look up between the wheel & colum you can see the button & plate. I just put a little di-electric grease on a pocket screw driver to get on the plate & then rotate the wheel.....
