However I had the same problem and it was because the steering wheel is slightly concentric.
Take the wheel off and look at the horn tab, when I turned my wheel it shorted the tab to the bottom screw that holds the stalk assembly in place shorting and sound ing the horn.
You need to bend the tab back up and put something to insulate the screw head, some tape etc or remove the screw?

thanks for the help
going to order the plastic sleeve ( spacer ) as it is missing because of the larger wheel and wheel adaptor
the steering wheel was going on to far and shorting on the horn/screw heads. it should have a 2mm to 4mm gap between the wheel
and column switch's.
thanks again for the help
cheers

But I had an hour of hell travelling through central London with that steering problem.

I have got a VW Corrado steering wheel on, which looks exactly the same and fitted perfectly…. I had the same problem with my old original steering wheel, but becasue it was so soft and used, i thought it was bending and I swapped it…
The problem was solved for a year with the new one, but now I have this problem that whenever I turn on my indicators the horn sounds, and any turn will beep the horn as well

I had a lot of angry pedestrians waving at me for that as well
