Horn keeps blowing on its own by rl55

I have a 96 chevy Cavalier. The horn went on by itself when no one was in car. I had to disconnect horn from the wire to it. Now the airbag cover where I hit to activate the horn clicks alot. I think the hornpad or relay is bad. Does anyone know anything about this or how to fix it.

I have the basic Cavalier, standard shift, etc.. The basic am/fm cd radio.
 
The problem, I can't set the clock, never could ! Read the manual and I don't have the button they say I do on my radio.
 
Before, the clock was right 1/2 the year here on the East Coast. Today I had a new battery put in and now it's totally not close to the time of day and now never will be
 
Anyone know how to set the clock on a 2002 Cavalier ???
 
Thanks much, tommy

My horn won't work on my 2004 Cavalier by tpdeel

My horn is not working. I've checked the fuse in the fuse box located in the panel inside my car, and the fuse looks fine. I cannot find the relay for the horn although a mechanic told me it was under the hood. Where can I find it? Also, I was told to check to see if a wire was loose, but where do I look for that? In the steering wheel? If so, how do I get the front off? I'm ignorant when it comes to cars, so any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Before you spend alot of time tracking down shorts or grounds, try hot wiring direct from the horn to battery to make sure horn does work.

I finally ended up taking it into the dealer, luckly it was under warranty. They told me that the relay switch was bad, but the horn was fine. Thanks though.

I am experiencing the same problem. I an told that the horn pad consists of tw plates with foam inbetweeen. This foam now has crumbled, causing the spontanious contact.
My problem now is that I do not know how to disassemble the pad since there is also an airbag. anyone knows?

Too long to explain here, get Chilton or any book that has the information.
