Kevin,
Have you taken it apart at the steering wheel and checked where the contact
is made at the horn ring? I have an aftermarket steering wheel from Grant
and had a similar problem where the horn went off when I made a turn. This
was my fix http://tr6.danielsonfamily.org/HornRepair.htm

First, I know that it is next to impossible to diagnose electricals over the
internet...

Situation:  Completely new wiring harnesses-  all of them, main, rear, and
OD.  New relays, new nearly everything.

All seems to be working well except that when I honk the horn, it will not
quit!  It is silent until I make the circuit at the sterring wheel, then it
honks.  I break the circuit, but horn continues to blow, until I disconnect
the battery.

This is a cheap aftermarket air horn-  could it be shorted out internally?
It is one thing in the system that is not new, and I was having this problem
before the new wiring.  I have checked the horn button to relay circuit- it
seems to be behaving as designed.

HELP!
Kevin
