Airbag light is on, horn is not working
 

2007 Veracruz.

My airbag light stays on, and the horn does not work. I've looked into these symptoms and seems like it could be the clockspring, but usually when that part is bad, the cruise control does not work either, and my cruise control is working. Also, I've replaced the clockspring, and I still have the same symptoms.

I realize that I could have received a bad clockspring (although not likely) but assuming the clockspring is not bad, what else could cause these symptoms with both the horn and airbag light, but not the cruise control?

For the horn, did you check the fuses??

Yes, I did check the fuses. The horn fuse was blown and I replaced it but that didn't help. I need to check it again after testing the horn to see if it has blown again. I actually pulled every fuse in the panel inside the vehicle to check it/reseat it. I did the same with the fuses under the hood, but not the relays, etc.

A blown fuse is an indication that there is a problem in the circuit
Sometimes replacing the fuse will solve the circuit problem
Most of the time .. no
Yeah, guess you should check the Horn relay
If you by pass the relay then you can tell if the horn works or the problem is there???

I checked and replaced the relay (because I broke it while trying to pull it off) and I still have the same symptoms. After starting the vehicle several times and driving it as well, the 15 amp fuse for the horn that had been blown is not blown again.

I'm thinking I may have had an incident that caused the 15 amp fuse to blow, but also caused some deeper electrical issues I haven't figured out yet? Any other advice is appreciated.

Hi did you ever resolve this issue? Having the same problem with my 2011 sonata after replacing the clock spring.

Since the post is almost 4 years ago they probably got rid of the vehicle by this time.

Yeah probably but I was curious if he ever figured out the problem because my airbag light is on and horn doesn’t work and putting a new clock spring in didn’t fix it 🤦‍♂️

Airbag and horn, and blown fuse?

sorry my fuse is not blown like his was. My horn works with the alarm button but not on steering wheel. Also swapped the horn relay for a working one and checked for codes with my scanner.

Same issue with 2012
 

Any other ideas on the issue? I have a 2012 with air bag light on, no horn, and no cruise control. But radio controls and phone controls, on left side of steering wheel, work. Cruise control and trip computer buttons , on right side, do not work. Ive tried spinning wheel i all directions to see if horn would work but nothing.

Sounds like possible clock spring issue

What someone will need to do is , check if power or ground are getting to the horn pad and go from there. It all does go through the clock spring in the steering column and is not a job for the usual DIY person ,,,,because ,if you do not know what you are dealing with you could have a discharged air bag in your lap.
As anyone can tell you that has one go off, it sounds like a shotgun when it goes off. Smart move to leave the complicated work to the pros.

Sorry for commenting 2 years later, but did you figure out a fix for this? I'm having this exact problem...same buttons do/do not work as you described. Same model, same year.

If you had to take it into Hyundai for a fix, approximately how much did that run? I just spent $900 to fix my AC blower through Hyundai, and I feel like a chump.
