Purple Tom 0 Posted May 14, 2009 I know this isn't very specific to your problem but that sounds very much to me like an earth fault, somewhere in the steering column, or possibly a broken ignition switch altogether. It could also be a fault with the instrument panel (clocks), but I can't see that affecting the horn. My attention would be focused on the ignition switch and all earths in that area, although I don't have any experience of this problem personally, hope its of some help!

dragon green 5 Posted May 16, 2009 have you tried disconnecting the horn ? the horn push should only be the earth,disconnect it from the fusebox,take out the fuse,and relay, any change ? what you have got to do is isolate as many circuits as you can,one at a time,to try and find out whats causing it ! as the man before me says probally a dodgy earth, or a power wire earthing onto another cable(s) or a melted plug somewhere, sorry i cant be more specific Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GTi.Si 0 Posted May 17, 2009 I had a very similar problem on an old mk2, I ended up removing the whole imobisiser from the car. It didn't make any difference, ended up being an after market relayed headlight kit that had water in 1 relay causing a short, but you could have water in the back of your fusebox.
