Not all the time. But I never know when. just a quick toot, sometime a double. Best I can remember it is always as I return the steering wheel to straight.
I pulled the horn pad and drove home without it tonight.... still toots. So I am leaning toward the ring and the spring contactor. I pulled the wheel and the ring and everything looks fine. the spring contactor seems to have a nice worn spot.
I removed the ring and pulled the wire thru.
how does this thing work anyway? when operating properly what touches to ground the horn? With the horn pad removed, I can touch the wire connector to the steering column and the horn works.
