F350 horn blows and dome light comes on randomly

1999 ford f350 super duty diesel - when truck sits for a few days, the dome light comes on very dim and then the horn will blow randomly and stay on until the dome light switch is turned to "ON." to me it seems to be some sort of a backfeed or a ground issue. any suggestions?

I think you are right.Find the short and repair it or you can try to take the bulb out of the dome light and keep the switch on and see if that helps but you won't have a dome light.

Is the battery fully charged.
Sounds like you have a short in or near the fuse block. Best taken to a good mechanic to have it checked.

Horn wont make any sound fuse is good relay is good switch clicks when pushed

Try grounding the horn with a test light off of each lead. If energized, the horn should sound if it's good. If it doesn't, and the test light lights at the horn, then the horn itself should be replaced.

1999 F350 horn blows all on its own...

I think your horn relay is making contact from behind your horn buttons on your steering wheel. Usually as time creeps up the insulation that is placed on the positive lead for the horn gets worn out from constant horn action. If it is worn down the horn is touching a ground and completing the circuit and thus making the horn sound. I would start with that first before getting more technical. Let me know. Gabe
