Horn stuck on

Has anyone else had their truck's horn come on all by itself and refuse to shut off? May possibly have something to do with Ford's alarm system.

horn

my 2001 sd started that 2 years ago. i had to pull out the fuse to shut it off, eventually quit, dealer said it would be hard to find. now it has started again and as soon as i put fuse back in it starts blowing again, of course it is out of warranty.

Check for a chaffed ground wire to the horn. That was the problem on my wife's 84 GMC. I think that when you press the horn it applies ground to the horn as the 12v is always there. Could be wrong but worth checking into.

I had this problem with my 99 F-250. I was sitting inside and all of a sudden, my horn came on and stayed on. Freaked me out a little. Like the others, I had to pull my fuse out. If I put it back in, it would just go back to the constant blowing. I brought it into ford and they fixed it. I'm not sure exactly what the cause was. It was still under warranty at the time.
