Posted: Wed Mar 28, 2012 5:10 amno i havent. i just unplug the horn under the dash until i find another solution.
Posted: Wed Mar 28, 2012 5:26 amI'm sure I have the solution. I'm guessing you weren't the one who installed the NRG quick release? The contact that is constantly touching the hub of the steering wheel seems to be loose. The contact is loose and touches the metal center of the steering wheel when you start to turn, which would make the horn go off. Take apart the steering wheel hub and locate the metal contact and secure it down. I used some rubber bands when I installed my NRG quick release. They seem to be holding up quite well, and I've never had any issues. Just be sure that the metal contact is well secure and is not loose.
