Do you have any play in the steering wheel, sometimes when the bushings wear
the shaft can ground on housing causing horn to honk when turning.

Subject: [6pack] Self-beeping Horns!
Sent: Aug 20, 2010 1:54 PM
Hey all;
I have been trying to track-down an apparent short in my car's horns. So
far, I've
disassembled the steering column, checked out the horn ring and
purple/black
wire from the ring to the harness and find that it's not broken,
pinched, or chafed.
I have disconnected the purple/black wire from the W1 on the relay
because when
I touch it to the terminal the horn beeps!! From the horn relay, I have
followed the
purple/yellow wires' path to the horns, but see no connections there
amiss.....
Do these horns ever get internal shorts somehow? All grounds appear to
be in order.
Any insights/suggestions would be *greatly* appreciated....!!
