1999 Dodge Ram 1500. How to make the horn stop going off constantly.

It is a known issue. Lots of ideas, mine is a to call out an auto-electrician with a pro-grade scan tool computer. When the battery is disconnected, and the key is in the ignition and the doors are closed, the horn shouldn't go off. Make sure you leave the windows open in case it self locks. After that, you need to do a security reset. There are 3 ways here.

Jeep JK Horn is not working. It was working but touchy. Dealer changed out the clock spring on recall notice. Now it doesn't work at all

2008, why no post the year.?
fuses checked (tested) fuse 23, 10amp, under hood, !!!!????
did you scan it first to see if there are DTC errors. oh boy lots there are and all very USEFUL.
all else on car work ok, drives ok day or night???????
they want to do mine too. but I wont let them.
i dont park, top down in rain, so, no need,
ok the horn can fail many ways,
id not pick the most hard and most costly first.
ever seen a voltmeter?
on mine its hooked to 3 things, alarm, door locks, and horn button.
so are all 3 dead.????? if yes, id bet it not the button/or clock/spring.
cause an alarm ?
tell the doors, to honk with KEY fob actions. (its programmable)
if that fails. say so.

the horn can fail or its base not grounded.
horns love to fail for base rust. clean it?
hot wire the horn to see if hot honks, cost 0 . (jumper wire)
unplug horn and hot wiring , work?


the horn has no relay on JK its TRANSISTOR driven
from the TIPM. direct drive.
so best is to do an alarm first
why? TIPM gets serial commands off the Can-buss
top HONK
so if the TIPM hears (receives) no command to honk there will be no honking, its on a network now.
so say if you scanned it and had can buss errors to the TIMP
we'd work that first, not horn. SEE

at the dealer they can send a scanner command to the horn
in 1min, work, see it works.

so read the operators guide,
see that page on setting horn options try those.
if all fail , the car must be scanned !

its not wired like 1990 wrangler at all.
i have full docs. so.. ask questions.

My horn was replaced on my 2006 kia sedona and sometimes it wont honk and sometimes it will

I pulled the center out of the steering wheel and grounded the horn contact. The horn honked like it should. This is on our 2006 KIA Sedona. The horn used to work once in awhile, but not at all now. This leads me to believe that the clockspring in the steering column is defective. I will call the dealer on Monday to see if there is a warranty fix, but I doubt that there is.

The horn in my 2003 pontyiac grand am wont stop honking

you will find a fuse labeled HORN and a relay labeled HORN in the under hood fuse flock. Pull either of those to stop the horn from blowing.

If you need info on how to fix it i can help. You will need a test light or a voltmeter.

You can also try swapping the horn relay with another relay in the fuse block that is the same. If the horn works normally than the relay is bad and will need to be replaced.

We are installing a battery in our 2000 xterra the horn starts to honk. How do we install without the horn honking

This looks like you have a alarm problem,take the keys out and replace battery,if it starts honking press alarm off.If this don't work you have to find a Nissan workshop to calibrate the alarm and computer.It might be so bad that the car wont start at all after a battery change and that,s because the car was powerless for a short while and the computer thinks its been stolen and hotwired.God luck

My horn used to honk when I locked my 1999 Jeep with the remote

If you have your owner's manual, there is a section that will tell you the exact sequence to press to enable/disable the horn bonk. It has three settings, chirp, honk, and off. The chirp is a really quick chirp of the horn. Honk is a longer honk. Off seems to be what you've set.

I hope this helps.

Horn wont honk

It could very possibly be that your horn relay has gone bad. I believe you might find it on the inside of the front fenders or the inside of the radiator support. I'm an ol' Chevy guy so don't quote me!
