Open the hood. Find the horn. Put one hand on the horn.
Have someone else blow the horn. If you DO NOT feel a click or hum then no power is getting to the horn. Get the owners manual out and find the fuse for the horn. Check or replace that fuse. See if the horn works. If not working go to auto parts store and ask them to look up horn relay for your car. Ask them to show you where the relay is located. See if you can replace that relay yourself. good luck

SOURCE: 1998 Dodge Grand Caravan Horn Not Working

The most common problem with this is the clockspring, it is located just under the steering wheel. It will cause the horn not to work, airbag light to come on, and the cruise not to work. There is probably a recall on this. Contact a local dealer to see if the recall applies to your car.

SOURCE: 2007 g5 gt coupe airbag light keeps flashing

I had this problem in my pontiac earlier this year. The first dealership tried to tell me that I had caused this by shoving things under my passenger seat (which was not the case). I went to a second dealership where they informed me that gm is aware of this problem and had links sent out to dealerships to help them deal with this problem. At the time GM had 3 engineers working with dealerships to help diagnose problems. They kept my car for 2 days changing out various parts and putting in new codes and finally they got it working correctly. Since this was a GM problem they covered all costs and gave me a rental free of charge for the 2 days. You definitely need to get this fixed because they told me that had I not fixed it and I'd been in an accident, my airbag would not have deployed. Hope this helps!

How to Remove and Replace the Airbag on a Hyundai Sonata 2007

In order to remove and replace the airbags in your Hyundai Sonata you just have to follow these three following steps,

Step 1
Disconnect negative battery terminal. This is a must or you will trigger the airbag light on your dashboard.

Step 2
To remove the airbag from the steering wheel on Hyundai Sonata 2007, you will need to press three locking pins that hold the airbag in place. Use a Phillips screwdriver. A Torx screwdriver will work even better.

Step 3
Pull out the locking clips from the airbag connector. Then disconnect both wires from the airbag. You also need to disconnect the horn wire.

For more clarification, check out this video,

1998 cadillac horn goes off randomly

Sounds like a bad horn button which is actually part of the airbag. Replace your airbag. They're cheap on e-bay and it's not hard to do. Just make sure you disconnect the battery before doing any airbag work.

Horn not working 02 tagret

Knowing the MY (model/year) tells me the horn is the problem. Yet, there is a Horn Relay and a fuse which feeds it power. A simple test with a 12 volt light bulb can verify/eliminate this as the cause. Connect a bulb (12 volt) to the connector contacts which plug into the horn. Then activate the horn (press on the steering wheel airbag) to see if the bulb lights up. If it does, then it's the horn. If it doesn't (make sure the bulb and connections are good), then the problem is in the wiring/relay/fuse.

The horn activates by itself at any time , changed horn relay already same thing

It is likely the horn button on your steering wheel is broken inside or the wire is shorting to the steering column. You would have to remove the airbag to fix this problem. If your horn button is on the airbag, you may have to replace the airbag.

Ive had my tracking done on a hyundia coupe now the steering wheel is not in aline when the wheels are staight, i need to remove steering wheel and reposition it, it as an airbag, can you advise me please...

Why not consult an expert in your location so you would not tamper with the air bag.

But if you feel you can, unbolt the steering wheel, unplug the airbag and count according to specification on the inner side of the steering wheel. Be careful.
