Horn randomly beeps itself when turning corners?!

[lindleyp]

I have a sabelt steering wheel fitted so I have no way of manually beeping the horn by accident. However over the last few days it seems to randomly sometimes beep when turning sharply around a corner? (quite embarrassing as other drivers thing im smashing my horn at them going around coming out of junctions!)

Anyway is there anyone thats even heard of this issue before because its the first ive seen or heard of a clio to do this?

Would my wires be twisted somwhere along the line and making contact?

If you cant use the horn anyway, take the fuse out?

You're closing the circuit somewhere hence the horn is going off. If you've attempted some "custom" wiring check this first.

That would be quite funny tbh imagine doing a 3 point turn in a busy street lol!

The wires from the original horn are probably knocking about loose under the cap in the centre of the wheel. Stick some insulation tape around them.

This is my guess too.

Cheers, Il trace the wires through aqnd see if im making contact anywhere, and yeah i feel like a right nob pulling out of parking spaces when people are walking past just blurting my horn at everyone ha!
