Subject:      Honking while turning at slow speeds
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Subject line pretty much says it.
A few things-
* Happens primarily at low speeds, like when pulling into a parking spot.
* Happens when turning the wheel with one hand (downward pressure on the
wheel).
  -Doesn't happen when driving normally (straight). I can push as hard as I
want on the wheel at any point and it won't engage the horn.
* I haven't yet removed the 24mm nut under the horn to clean and lubricate
in order to rule this out as a cause of the scraping sound, but I have taken
the horn off a couple of times and put it back in.

So I guess the question I should be asking is . . .
Where is the most likely location of the short?

OR did I unwittingly replace the horn pad incorrectly and nudge one of the 2
wires?
