Re: Strange Case of Overactive Horns

Yooper...Thanks for the tip. I just went and checked. Unfortunately, your problem and my problem seem to
have different gremlin sources.

Did you have those "auto-pilot" features, too? Or was your "instant-on" related to the position of the steering wheel
or turn signal lever?

I didn't pull the steering wheel to check, but it seems that the turn signal cam in my tilt wheel allows more than enough
clearance that the turn signal stalk can't come in contact with *anything*.

Also, that three minute wait and then the juice turns off at the horn seems to make the fixes a little different.

It is obvious that the horn circuit is finding ground on an intermittent basis. Then "ungrounding" without so
much as a breath on anything by my chubby hands.....Uggg!

Mostly because of the on again, off again aspect of this deal, I'm still wondering if it could be in the horn relay itself.
