97 Accord: Random Horn Beeping
Symptom: The horn will randomly start beeping…
• Never blasts (longer duration), but rather always a quick beep
• The beeping doesn’t happen every time you drive, in fact, I may go several days without a sound
• However, anytime it does beep, it will beep frequently, but never in a pattern- always randomly
• The beeping seems to be independent of any normal causal factors (outside temperature, engine temperature, humidity, time of day, time of year, weather, car moving, car standing still, etc.)
• Moving or striking the steering wheel or column does not affect the beeping or non-beeping
• When it is beeping, the electric car lock/unlock does not work, and in fact, depressing the lock/unlock button will make the horn beep
• If it is beeping (and hence the lock/unlock is not operational), if you turn the ignition off, and restart (even immediately), it will “reset” and the beeping will have stopped and the lock/unlock will be operational again
Thoughts?
