Horn goes bonkers in the night. . .

[Newf Limo]

Just finished a sixteen hour day at work, got home at five AM and tried to get a little shut eye before having to be back at 1pm. At 5:30 AM my truck desides it is time to go back to work. The HORN (stock) goes off! Not the alarm blast, but a steady, loud, abnoxious, wake me and all the neighbors up blast! These horns are MUCH louder in these situations than the are for normal use! I tried hitting the steering wheel, frantically pushing alarm buttons, starting the engine, and finally found the **** fuse! Ideas? I absolutely LOVE my truck BUT, it almost saw the buisness end of a shotgun this morning!!!!

I've had this happen, but not on my truck. There was a bad/stuck relay as the culprit. I'm not sure how the Dodge is wired, but the horns are easy to access under the front bumper. Easy to pull the wires.

I too had this happen at 2:00 am on a brand new truck. Turned out it was the airbag/horn
assembly. The dealer canabilized one from a new truck and all was well
