Ahhh, now there's the rub, finding the short.
The first thing you have to do is isolate the wires leading to the horn itself. You'll then have to trace the wires back to the switch which is located on the steering wheel. You'll also have a wire which travels to the power source. (battery) The circuit is simple enough; unfortunately your wires are likely to be bundled with fifty other wires.
Look for clues: 1) When the horn activates, is it a long solid blast which suggests that the wires may be pressed firmly against a ground?
2) Or is it a series of halting toots which occurs while going over a rough patch of road?
It would help if you have a multimeter set to detect low voltage. Place the negative lead on a good contact point on the engine and run the positive lead along the wires and look for a spike in voltage. If you find one then that could be the source of your problem. Isolate the area and insulate with electrical tape.
Of course, you could get lucky and find a break in the wire where is has rubbed against the car body or engine and left a burn mark.
These are some general remarks to help you get started. Take my advice, if you haven't managed to find it in the first hour, take it to your dealer. It may be worth the money to you to avoid the aggravation.
What else can I help you with?
Is high IQ very important in life?
Kinda-sorta. Intelligence alone won't get you anywhere, but someone who's intelligent as well as driven and educated is likely to do better than someone who's "only "driven and educated.
The multiple paths in this circuit suggest that it is MOST LIKELY a?
parallel circuit.
Which component is likely to be damaged if hooked into a live circuit?
If a component is hooked into a live circuit, it is likely that the component itself will be damaged.
How do you spell odvise?
The likely word is advise (to counsel, to recommend).
When a dead short occur what happens to circuit resistance?
The circuit resistance is likely to gradually drop and in such case it will cause the circuit to burn down.
How would this change affect the electric circuit?
The change would likely impact the flow of electricity in the circuit.
What is the most likely cause for resistance to vary in a circuit?
heat
Do you need a filter with a planted tank?
Provided the tank is very well planted and not at all close to fully stocked, you could get away with no filter. I always advise people to stay on the safe side though and use a power filter on every tank except breeding tanks when I recommend an air driven internal filter. Air driven filters have much less flow and are less likely to drag in fry.
Can a melted cup in a dishwasher blow a circuit breaker?
Its not very likely.
How is an open circuit dangerous?
its likely to have the full supply voltage across it

What will happen if you drink ear drops?
Most likely nothing bad will happen. But I still do not advise to experiment.
