On the 85 GL I use to have the horn would blow by itself on really windy days. I used to drive the highway a lot around Turnagain Arm outside Anchorage Alaska. The Arm was noted for it's strong gusty winds. An on days when it was blowing, really strong gusts would cause the horn to sound. Pretty startling when it happened. Never happened anywhere else except on that one stretch of highway. John Rodgers 88 GL Driver "Paul M. Hillbish" wrote: > > My horn is odd.
