the horn circuit is pretty simple. ignition key pin "X" (on when in accessory or run), yellow wire to fuses 1,2.3. yellow wire from fuse 2 to horns. black wire from horns to horn switch in steering wheel, black wire from horn switch to ground. the horn switch is on a brush thing so it stays connected as the steering wheel is rotated.

if the horns are always honking, that black wire must be shorted to ground somewhere between the horn and the steering column..


fuse 2 is also used for the windshield washers.

It seems there is some problem with the horn. I have used Warning Light | Code 3 | Light Bar | Strobe Light | LED Lights to replace my horn. They offer very cheap price.
