Horn randomly honking???
Does anyone know why my horn ('98 Z28) would be going off randomly (usually while accelerating or turning)? I pulled the fuse for the time being, but I would like to fix this so my horn (more importantly my alarm) still works. Thanks.

This reminds me of a video I saw where these guys wired the horn on their friend's car to the brake lights.
All joking aside, it sounds like you have a loose or frayed wire if it only happens when the vehicle's weight shifts. Start by checking the wire that connects to the horn.

I did have this happen to me once in my first car, a grand marquis. A horn wire metal connector had came loose and rattled around the inside of the steering wheel. Occasionally it touched the other connector completing the circuit. Hilarity ensues.
