Jim, try this:

HORN

REMOVAL

(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.

(2) Raise and support the vehicle.

(3) Remove the front underbody splash shield.

NOTE: Remove the horn and its mounting bracket from the vehicle as a unit. Do not remove the horn from its mounting bracket.

(4) Remove the screw that secures the horn and mounting bracket unit to the radiator closure panel brace (Fig. 4).

(5) Lower the horn and mounting bracket unit far enough to access and disconnect the wire harness connector from the horn connector receptacle.

(6) Remove the horn and mounting bracket unit from behind the front bumper.

One day my horn came on while parked in my driveway. My friend unhooked it, I haven't tried to hook it back up but, what do you think might be wrong? Could it just be the fuse?

@Tammy Russell If it comes back on when you reconnect it, possibly a stuck horn relay or stuck horn button. My money is on the relay.
