my car has been sitting for about 4 months, and i tried to put in a new battery today when i hooked up the connections it started beeping, well not beeping more like beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep... and won't stop untill i unhook the battery i have no clue why, any help?

 

sure you didn't hook up the battery backwards, or have a aftermarket security system installed???

 

Got coolant and oil?

 

the coolant and oil level would have something to do with it? the oil might be low, but how would that set the horn off? oh, and no aftermarket sec system.

 

is it the horn or like a buzzing noise?

 

oh, its definatly the horn, i almost **** my pants when i hooked it up

 

Well low coolant and low oil will set off the warning buzzer, but you say it's the car horn...so you must have a short in that circuit.

 

damnit, i hate everything electrical, could i just take out the fuse for the horn for now, its not on the road anyway?

 

So does everything else work fine, just the horn activates when you hook up the battery???

Did you try turning the key in the drivers door to unlock while the horn is honking?

And pulling fuses is a micky mouse way to fix things

 

would be better to pull the plug of the horn....I think you'll lose ABS, brake lights, and cruise control if you pull the fuse.

 

hmm, the horn is not honking, its a constant beep like someone is laying on the horn, i did try unlocking the door because i thought that it might be the sec system, but to no avail, and yes it is just the horn. wow, im confused

 

If it is the horn, (and not some buzzer) then it suggests either the CPU is bad or the steering wheel pickup/connection for the horn is bad.

 

could it be the horn relay?, i just want to get this thing running

 

The horn relay is built into the main circuit board of the CPU. I do have rebuilt FB05 CPUs available on my website, but please check the steering column connections first, so you don't waste any money buying the wrong part.

 

i think i will, but what should i check for at the connections?

 

Check that they are not loose and that there is no short (exposed wires touching things that they shouldn't be touching).

 

"my car is broken"

Welcome to the club

 

ill check them today

 

ok im starting to get mad, i can't get the front of my steering wheel off, and i cant find the horn, WTF?!?!??!?
