      Using the MIGHTY search feature, I found this: http://www.aveoforum.com/forum/f108/...y-blows-11443/
      Limited warranty applies. All modifications and repairs to the horn are at users own risk. Batteries not included.
      Please do not power off, firmware update pending.....

      I remember that thread. Anyway your looking for a short between the relay and the horn itself from the sounds of it.

      Lol, IMO the horn on these cars is junk anyway, too quiet.

      I like it as a friendly type horn. HOWEVER, I often use as a reminder to other cars, we share the same road. At that point I would like something a little more assholy (yes I just made that word up). You know that righteous smug obnoxious attitude. I can see it now the left horn button on the wheel (friendly) and the right (assholy, get t F out of the left hand lane). Small car, big ass horn.

      My uncle has this lil B3200 truck and he has like 6 different horns on it. It is retarded, on the other hand I always wanted to get an air horn and put a train whistle/horn on it.

      There were some really loud horns posted in the other bad horn thread I think. . . I know there is a youtube of a truck that sounds like about 10 train horns going off.

      I went to urban dictionary, alas, it was there. Urban Dictionary: assholy

      For years driving beetles, I suffered wimpy horn syndrome. Now I drive an Aveo, and I still suffer...
