1992 Pontiac Sunbird 3.1L mileage: 242,000. Recently, whenever the outside temperature is in the teens my horn starts blowing and I cannot get it to stop. I have to disconnect the horn wiring to stop it, but needless to say, I no longer have a working horn. This has happened several times so far this winter. Any suggestions?

Sounds like your problem is the steering wheel itself. When it gets cold, the plastic part of the steering wheel shrinks and honks the horn. You likely need to replace the steering wheel. The alternative is to pray for sunny warm days.
