This happened a while back when I was still driving the car. I went out for a drive (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) w/ my dad and when we were driving the horn went off for a split second and I didn't even touch it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) we went over a little bump that you enevitably cannot avoid (nothing major, like a smaller speed bump) and then all of a sudden the horn goes off like crazy and I'm not touching it. It goes long, then short, quiet, then short, then short, then long, etc. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif) (and I've got the double horns, so it's LOUD!) You get the picture.

So we're going down my street and of course its during the weekend and everyone is out doing yard work and such and my HORN is BLARING down the street. Pretty embarassing even when you aren't doing anything. I turn off the car and it's still going and going and going. I pull the battery clamps to turn it off. Since I had no idea what the HELL to do, I just clipped the power wire to horns (right next to it, it can still be re-wired w/ ease).

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon14.gif) Now when I get up and running where should I look for the problem. The wiring looked okay (not pulled or messy) by the horn and my uncle (previous owner) said it might be in the steering column. I couldn't pull that apart or anything since I'm not mechanically skilled (yet) , but I need to diagnose he problem sometime soon.

Karl when I get it running I'll have you look at it, but info from others is appreciated

Thanks
