I was wondering if anyone could help me out with my horn.

I have the big ugly 4 post steering wheel with the two horn buttons. I'm not sure how it was before but this is how it's acting now:

- car off - horn doesn't work
- key in on position - horn doesn't work
- start up engine - horn sometimes works (sometimes it works only after I drove a bit, sometimes even after i drove for a while it doesn't work)

I checked the horn fuse in the engine bay...it looks okay to me...checked the power and grounds to the horns, they don't look damaged....all my other electronics in the car work and i don't have any other electrical issues as far as I know...

Any ideas? kindasad.gif

Update on the whole horn situation.....still acting funny...

The worked as it normally should for a day....honked when I pressed it whether the car was on or not...
Yesterday the horn sound fluttered to a silence while I tested it again...fuse was fine and so were the connections as far as I can tell....tested it again later in the day and it worked fine..

why this inconsistent performance?....
