Why does the horn stay on after reconnecting the battery a few hours later... ? WTF
I left the battery in my 2021 X3 MC unplugged for a few hours today so I could pull the steering wheel off for some upgrades. However, once I reconnected the battery & put the negative cable back on the battery post it triggered the HORN TO STAY ON.
WTF is wrong now & how do I fix this... ?

Turns out it was simply because the key FOB wasn't anywhere near the car when the battery was reconnected. Go figure huh...
