Honking my horn twice makes music restart on Bluetooth audio
OK I swear I am not crazy. Twice now I have been listening to Bluetooth audio when I honk my horn twice and the song repeats / starts over or goes to the next song. I'm not loosing any sleep but this is pretty strange.

Seeing as a Mercedes driver is ALWAYS honking their horn, you can see what a problem this is……

I would guess one of the steering wheel button wires is getting pinched when you press on the horn triggering the song change.

I remember back a few years, some teenagers wired a guy's truck so that every time he pressed the brake, the horn would go off.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wDw5Lk6VL4LOL
