I've a had a great horn for about a week. I installed a new relay last week. Today, while driving, my horn suddenly just came on and stayed on. Solid blaring. I pulled to the shoulder and disconnected a couple of wires from the horn relay. It was hot. What does this all mean? My relay, brand new, is defective?
I hate to offer this up, but I did adjust my steering wheel alignment last week. Maybe I tore up the purple ground wire when I pulled the wheel a few inches out toward me, before pushing it back in? Sort of a wild theory, but this sudden horn malfunction has me wondering.
Also, don't hold me to this, but I think when a pulled the purple ground wire off the relay, the horn stayed on for at least another second while I pulled off another wire. Now, of course, with everything cooled down, the relay seems to be working fine.
Any ideas? CJD?
See, you can't go away for quite some time.
