95 Lesabre Horn has mind of its own
I totally do not understand this one. No one around the car and all of a sudden horn decide to start honking or maybe driving down road and all of a sudden they blow. You can hit the horn pad on the steering wheel and they will quit, sometimes you have to hit it more than once.
I have taken the relay out and tested it. It seems to test ok. I have checked wires to horn with ohm meter. I have also tested back to horn pad in wheel. I am guessing there is a switch on top of the air bag that I can't get to. When I check back to steering wheel with ohm meter once in a while I will get ohm when the horn should be off. If I hit the pad it goes away. It is usually hot outside when horns decide to go off by themselves. I don't see how horn button can ground itself unless it has help. Maybe I am going wrong direction. If it is the horn button and it is built into airbag, as I suspect, is there a way to fix, short of replacing air bag? Is there a good (better) place to put an external button that would still be safe. I have thought about putting one at left side of steering column. If its not to expensive I would like to fix it properly but if I have to go an alternate route then I have to. Someone told me it could be the switch in the steering column that has turn signal and all in it. Thanks for any advice.
