faulty ignition switch

your description is confusing - when a fuse is removed, there is no electricity to go through the circuit. When you check the removed fuse using an OhmMeter, there is either continuity or not. Checking all fuses does not resolve the issue - you need to check specific fuse and note the behaviour. If you are checking the for the electricity, you need to define "not a lot of electricity", as electricity is measured in definite values

Tell us more about the problem - since we do not have the car in front of us, we are only relying on your description of the problem and the symptoms, and we do not know your level of expertise - do we need to hold your hand and walk you through the process, or you are an expert and need minimal guidance...

tell us how the problem started. was there any work done on the car? how old is your battery? was the battery recently drained? we need the details...

Thats what the guy who worked on my car told me. I put aftermarket horns on the car, thats the only thing i put on the car. It was raining in la like a week ago and thats when it all started. Ive taken off the negative and i left off for about a good hour i turned it on and still the same thing. Do you guys think the computer needs to be reset?

aftermarket horns? interesting.. were those horns designed for the X5? this car has very sensitive electronics, with callibrated, balance signal and power lines - that means if the values of the replacement electrical component are not what the microcontroller is expecting, it will compensate by either increasing or reducing the power supply, but it can not overcompensate for grossly mismatched values.

Depending on the quality of the workmanship, the rain may have contributed to the issue - if the contacts were not properly insulated, or the system was not properly grounded.

There are multiple computers in this car, responsible for specific areas - the horns don't seem to be controlled by the computers though...

what I suspect, that
1. the battery may have been drained
2. depending where the work was performed, the steering wheel ring may have been damaged
3. as it was indicated before, ignition coil

if this is power related issue, then it could be the battery or the alternator... however, i would think, that the battery issues would be secondary to the horn installation - do you know where the replacement horns were introduced, and if there was any work done in the steering wheel vicinity?

[Arakhopar]

The horns were made in taiwan or somewhere like that but , they had everything inside of the horn replaced to sound better.

[TerminatorX5]

was any work done around the steering wheel?

[Arakhopar]

No i recently took replaced the clock spring when the airbag light went on, but the light was still like that

[TerminatorX5]

so you replaced the clock spring? is it the one that is in the steering wheel column? and now the buttons on the wheel, the horn and the rear wiper do not work? how about the turn signals and the high beam -do they work?

[Arakhopar]

Yeah they work but the seat heater doesnt work
