My horn is possessed. Please help.
It goes off for no particular reason. It really likes to go off when there is a crowd aroung looking at my vette.
The horn cap is a little loose. I have tried to take it off and see what is going in there but I don't know the procedures to do that. Can anyone tell me how to get the cap off and what do I need to look for once I get the cap off?

thanks,
Brad
 
The horn button will come off if you pull it to you, there is a two piece horn contact the is held together with plastic rivets, that could be the problem. www.ecklers.com shows the part as # A8652. PG.
 
Your horn is beeping on it's own because the horn contact is grounding. Check the contact. It may need to be replaced, or might need a good cleaning.

The assembly instruction manual (AIM) has a diagram of how the horn contact was assembled to the column.

When you continue disassembling the steer be aware of the little spring in there with a small white thingie on it. This only happens when you remove the 3 little bolts with the 3 round dishes that hold the horn trigger in place.
