So, I'd not gotten around to tearing the bumper off yet, but today I inadvertently bumped the horn getting into the car. My discovery? My horn works as long as the key is in the off position. What's weirder is that if I hold the horn down while turning the key on, I can some get the horn to work with the car running for about 5 or 10 minutes, after that it fails again and only works with the ignition off.

Anyone have an idea of what's causing this? Ignition switch on its way out?
