saturn s-series is economy class car, there is only one horn on the
vehicle.
if the horn goes off and stay on one night there are two possible causes
1 - the horn pads shrinks on cold ambient temp and ground path to the
horn.
2 - the horn itself shorted out which is very possible.

the horn relay from saturn hardly cause trouble. only if replace with
after market
relay and then trouble will present when the relay coil get weak or the
switching in the
relay could stuck on when use.
