Default Horn activates by itself (Need Help!)

My daughter's 97 sable horn goes off by itself about once a week. It sounds like the panic alarm was hit on the remote with pulsating beeps. I took the battery out of the main remote and switch to a back up remote without any success.

She leaves for college in a few days and would like to find a fix before she leaves.

By the way the horn shuts off when the panic button on the remote is pressed.

*Update* I think maybe the problem is in the RAP module (Remote Anti-theft Personality module). I found the following link that gives its location.

http://v8sho.com/SHO/TSB9761RemoteKeylessEntry.htm

When the two cable harnesses are unplugged from the RAP the keyless remote no longer function. Has anyone had experience with this?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Bill
