I had the same issue. The horn is energized when the circuit is completed by the pressing the horn button in the center of the steering wheel. This grounds the circuit and completes it. So my issue was with the horn button mechanism inside the center portion of the steering wheel. Once I corrected that, all was good. Hope this helps.

Glad to see this post, as mine sometimes blows when the wheel is turned. Now I know what to do-thanks!
