Hi,

My '90 Vanagon is running perfectly, and I was just about to say so since
our recent thread reminding us that positive comments are sometimes needed
on this list.   Now, in order to punish me for saying that, my van is
demanding attention like a three-year-old:  It is displaying the "stuck
horn" syndrome.  It randomly sticks in the "on" position regardless of the
position of the steering wheel.  Pulling on the button doesn't seem to help
either.  I noticed in the Bentley that there is no horn relay!   (No horn
relay!  That's almost as intelligent as having no headlight relay!)
Therefore, the only culprit can be the horn button, the slip-ring contacts
on the steering column, or frayed insulation anywhere on the wire to chasis
ground.   Is this a common occurrence?  If so, where is the best first
place to look?

Thanks,
Michael Townsend
