Had this happen to me once. The part inside your steering wheel has two metal plates with some foam or something in between. When the plates touch, it beeps. Anyway my foam was all worn out and when it would get cold at night the metal would compress enough to touch and honk continuously. I ended up just replacing it.

we've tried to find the wires but can't...regardless, you guys are missing my question - if we've pulled the fuse so that when we try to manually honk it won't honk, is there any way it can still honk even though the horn relay fuse is pulled?


From what I remember, horn switches always have power going to them regardless if the car is off. The relay fuse is just for the horn switch to activate it when you want the horn to blow. The fuse may not prevent it from going off if something like the pad switch is messed up or a short in the wiring.
