If this happens then you need to install a relay with a 20 amp fuse to correct it, and use the stock horn power wire as the relay switch. A separate power wire would be needed to actually power the horn. This will continue to let the steering wheel control the horn, rather than a switch installed in the car somewhere.
ah, thanks, can you tell me where i can get this relay???

thank you for the info.
