93 ex horn won't stop

[loonysalmon]

I was driving the other day when all of a sudden my horn wouldn't stop going off. I pulled the horn stop fuse but that cut out my cruise control. Where should I start to look? All fuses are good from what I could see.

Tried searching for horn stop threads bit didn't find any that applied. Any help is appreciated as I frequent my cruise buttons.

I would check the contacts on your horn buttons.

the horn stop will also cut the brake lights

just check the wiring from the box back

sucks but thats all you can do or disconnect the horns for now and hook the fuse back up

heres a TEMP fix...

take off the bumper...unplug the horns. ( you wont have horns )

more than likely...you have a bad horn relay. ( check that relay )

just buy new from tasauto.com if they are bad

don't have to take off your bumper for this. I think if you take out your bumper lights, and then wiggle your hands around a bit, you can unplug them

I can't....I have meaty hands...


so..back in the day.. I had to take the front bumper off to unplug the horns off of one the CB7s I had...

came to find out....there was a short in the horn ( behind the steering wheel cover ) 90-91 ONLY.

but....just for a temp fix...unplug your horns.

Was there a weird clicking noise coming from your steering a little before it started going off on its own? If so, there is a metal contact that is very pliable, when you hit your horn it pushes that contact on to a metal plate closing the circiut, and making the horn go off. If you heard the clicking noise chances are, for one reason or another, the steering wheel is hitting the pliable metal contact, and each click is the wheel actually bending the contact to the point where it will not come back off the metal plate.
