Question
My horns went off in the night time by themselves. Now i have no horns at all. I changed the relay but still no horns.Can i repair this problem myself? I am a home garage mechanic. Will the air bag be a problem? ThanYou.Need help.

Answer
YES, YOU CAN DO IT.
NO, THE AIR BAG IS NOT A PROBLEM, JUST USE NORMAL CARE.
Carefully remove your steering wheel center parts, to expose the horn activation parts...a contact ring and a wire leading to a grounding device (usually a small carbon "pencil" attached to the wire.
look for loose connections, and worn or corroded parts.
Clean/replace as needed.
