Horn Problem Solved
I had a problem with the horn only working some of the time. (There's nothing like having a truck start to merge into you only to have your horn fail.) The first two or three times the dealer could not solve the problem. One time they replaced the wiring harness. Finally they worked with the Acura Tech Line and found that the horn was not properly grounded. It needed special conductive grease in the steering bearing. Here is their diagnosis:
"Filled upper steering bearing full of carbon conduction grease per Acura Tech Line."
The horn has worked perfectly for the last 10 days. I thought I would post this in case others have had the same problem.
