Horn circuit relies on grounding (completing the circuit when horn is pressed) through steering shaft/column assembly. This connection to ground becomes unreliable as the vehicle ages leaving you with a non-functioning horn (in an emergency).

The contact owns a 2001 Toyota Tundra. While the vehicle was parked in the garage, the ABS electronic control module melted onto the floor. The garage was filled with grey smoke, ash, and soot. The mechanic stated that an electrical short occurred and the ABS electronic control module's power unit remains operational when the engine is shut off. The vehicle was towed to a mechanic. The ABS control module will be replaced and the wiring harness may also need to be replaced. The washer fluid bottle tubes were damaged. The current and failure mileages were 82,300.
