Stop in for a cup of coffee

Trying to figure out problem on the wifes 09 Journey. Horn starts blowing intermittently just sitting in the driveway. So the likely suspects...
Horn switch- This is part of the drivers airbag as far as I know. And I am pretty sure was replace on one of the recalls in last couple years.
Clock spring - Would expect it would go off while turning if this was the problem. As far as I know,

has never happened while driving.

TIPM - For some reason unbeknownst to the normal mind. Dodge decided not to include the Horn, Fuel pump, locks and wipers among the REPLACEABLE relays. Instead they are soldered onto a board under the fuse box. :BangHead: This is a known problem. The horn is actually not a common one that goes bad because it is used infrequently. (Fuel pump is most common)
Looking for a good way to troubleshoot cause my pockets aint deep enough to change all these parts...Would be really nice to get this on the first try.
In the meantime -fuses are out and she has no horn.

Need a better story.
Like doors locked,keys in house or what?
Body control module? Caravans did that too, broken wires in door jamb.
Module was in driver’s door.

Clocksprings rarely short out. They go open.

Bought a van that horn was stuck on, fuse was pulled.
Guess owner’s son had the van and punched the horn button. Dented the foil in the switch. I took it apart and somehow flattened it. Worked for years after.
