weird problem with horn going

I'm sitting at home all the sudden I hear a horn going, think its a neighbor's alarm then I go and find its my horn so I go out and open door it shuts off. walk back into house and it goes again so I go back out as soon as I open door it turns off. So I shut door and stand there as soon as the dome lights turn off bam horn starts so then I left door open while I was typing this it went off again went out it turned off by itself then turned on off a couple times so I unhooked neg cable from both battery's. and that's how its sits don't know what to do.

Bingo, you have your answer. Check under the dash and see if it is wet.

The GEM module is behind the fusebox by your left foot.

Problem gone today, pulled fuse yesterday put it back in today. Everything looked dry yesterday but if it comes back at least I know where the fuse is.
